3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,
: 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
: 5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds through Christ.
I like the comfort part. COMFORT means to lend strength, like encouragement in a way.
COM=with FORT=strength, fortitude.
EN=in (to put in, or inside) COURAGE= courage (based in word for heart) (i.e. to put HEART IN.....)
