2 BAKORINTHE 1:3-7SSO89SOBula ka mmadi wa Bibele

Caregiving involves giving comfort – trying to make someone else’s suffering more bearable; physically, emotionally and spiritually. The Bible talks a lot about this, and especially about God comforting his people or ordering someone to comfort them.

In his second letter to the Corinthian church, the apostle Paul explains where the source of our own comfort lies, as well as our ability to comfort others.
