Now, so many others will come to appreciate and benefit from your gifts and talents.<br /><br />"He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. 2 Corinthians 1:4 NLT<br /><br />To paraphrase: Tag, you're it!
