Counterfeit comfort is anything that we turn to for comfort, though not all is bad, it should not be what comforts us. For instance, food is a blessing from God, but it was not meant to comfort us, God is meant to comfort us. God is meant to help us when we feel stress, lonely, anxious, fearful, tormented and so on. God is the one we turn to for this comfort, anything else is counterfeit.
