Bible Verse of The Day – 12-27-23

Psalm 34:18 (NKJV) 18 The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit.

Is your heart broken?

Have you been dealt a blow recently that sent you reeling?

Does it feel like someone has pulled the rug from under your feet, and you’re stumbling, trying to find your footing?

Has the battle you are fighting knocked the wind out of you, leaving you struggling to catch your breath?

Does it feel like your heart has been shattered into pieces, and you will never be whole again?

Being brokenhearted is never a good feeling. It can make us feel as though we want to curl up and die, surrendering to whatever situation we are facing.

It can cause us to feel like hope is lost, with no chance of ever finding it again.

But we need to remember Who we belong to.

Sometimes we need someone to shake us and wake us up, so we don’t let our desperation take over and cause us to abandon our faith.

We will all face trials in our lives. But we also need to remember that we have a Redeemer who wants to walk us through those trials, bringing us out victoriously on the other side.

The question is, “will we let Him?”.

God tells us that He is near to the brokenhearted. And Jesus told us in Luke 4:18, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted”.

Do we not know how powerful His love is to heal us when our heart is broken?

Let us trust Him to bring healing to our broken heart.

Let us not keep Him at arm’s length, pushing Him away when He is trying to bring us healing and renew our hope.

For there is none like Him. And there is no one who can make us whole, as He can.
