The God of All Comfort

Originally published in 1906, ‘The God of All Comfort’ by Hannah Whitall Smith, conveys an important and powerful message, that God isn’t angry with you—He longs to give you peace and joy. Hannah Smith, who suffered so much in her personal life, has an amazing Bible-based grasp of God's love for each of us.
This late nineteenth-century study holds a well-deserved spot among the Christian classics, reminding God’s children of His many promises of comfort, help, and love. Addressing God’s powerful names, His role as shepherd and dwelling place, and His complete sufficiency for human needs, this book will show you that anxiety, fear, and insecurity are unnecessary feelings for Christians.

Hannah Whitall Smith (1832-1911) was born in Philadelphia to a Quaker family. Her life expressed the joy that is found in complete surrender to the Lord. 'The secret to a happy life', according to Whitall Smith, is to trust implicitly in the promises of the Bible. Her goal was not to impress the scholar, but to elevate the simple man or woman who longed for a more consecrated way of living. Deeply practical, her writings deal directly with the day-to-day struggles of ordinary people. She also authored 'The God of All Comfort'.
