No journey is complete that does not lead through some dark valleys.  We can properly comfort others only with the comfort wherewith we ourselves have been comforted of God.

From Matthew 5:4:  “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.”

Vance Havner (1901-1986) was an American pastor and Christian author.  During his many years of service to the Lord, he preached throughout America.
