What was it about Titus?<\/p><p data-start=\"568\" data-end=\"1446\">Paul had sent Titus to Corinth to learn how the assembly had responded to his first letter, and Paul was waiting for his report. His deep concern for the Corinthian believers raised troubling questions in his mind, which could have been the cause of his restlessness. In 2 Corinthians 7:5, Paul describes his state as being <em data-start=\"892\" data-end=\"963\">\u201c\u2026troubled on every side. Outside were conflicts; inside were fears.\u201d<\/em> In 2 Corinthians 2:13 he said, <em data-start=\"981\" data-end=\"1012\">\u201cI had no rest in my spirit,\u201d<\/em> and in 2 Corinthians 7:5, he added, <em data-start=\"1034\" data-end=\"1062\">\u201c\u2026our bodies had no rest.\u201d<\/em> Paul was spiritually drained. In 2 Corinthians 11:28 he even mentions that the daily care of all the churches weighed on him. The apostle Paul seems to have been depressed, yet he did not quit. He was <em data-start=\"1264\" data-end=\"1338\">\u201cafflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing\u201d<\/em> (4:8). He was discouraged but not defeated, still holding on to hope for a good report when he met Titus.<\/p><p data-start=\"1448\" data-end=\"2253\">But perhaps there was more to it. Maybe it was also personal. This is actually the first time Titus is mentioned by name in the New Testament. Paul calls him <em data-start=\"1608\" data-end=\"1625\">\u201cmy true child\u201d<\/em> in Titus 1:4, and in 2 Corinthians 2:13 he calls him <em data-start=\"1679\" data-end=\"1694\">\u201cmy brother.\u201d<\/em>His name means <em data-start=\"1710\" data-end=\"1719\">\u201cnurse\u201d<\/em> or <em data-start=\"1723\" data-end=\"1733\">\u201crearer\u201d<\/em>\u2014one who helps care for others. In 2 Corinthians 7:5-6 we see Paul\u2019s relief when Titus arrived: <em data-start=\"1829\" data-end=\"2251\">\u201cFor indeed, when we came to Macedonia, our bodies had no rest, but we were troubled on every side. Outside were conflicts, inside were fears. Nevertheless, God, who comforts the downcast, comforted us by the coming of Titus, and not only by his coming, but also by the consolation with which he was comforted in you, when he told us of your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced even more.\u201d<\/em><\/p><p data-start=\"2255\" data-end=\"2462\">The coming of Titus brought joy to Paul not only because of the report he carried, but because of who Titus was. He lived up to his name, allowing the God of all comfort to use him as a channel of comfort.<\/p><p data-start=\"2710\" data-end=\"3037\">The Greek word for comfort is <em data-start=\"2740\" data-end=\"2752\">parakaleo,<\/em> meaning \u201cto call to one\u2019s side, call for, summon.\u201d It can mean exhortation, encouragement, or consolation. Paul uses this word 29 times in 2 Corinthians\u201411 times as a noun and 18 times as a verb. The picture is of someone walking alongside another, giving comfort and encouragement.<\/p><p data-start=\"2710\" data-end=\"3037\">Let\u2019s think for a moment about being a Titus\u2014being one who comforts others. A simple definition of comfort is \u201cto go through the tough times together.\u201d We are instructed in 1 Thessalonians 5:11 to <em data-start=\"2661\" data-end=\"2706\">\u201ccomfort each other and edify one another.\u201d<\/em><\/p><p data-start=\"4262\" data-end=\"4375\"><strong>Anchor For Today<\/strong><\/p><p data-start=\"4262\" data-end=\"4375\">The Lord is looking for \u201cTitus-like\u201d believers today\u2014those He can use to comfort the downcast.
