Broken heart

He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds (Psalm 147:3) (NIV). 

Is your heart broken? Does it feel like someone just ripped out your heart and threw it in the garbage or threw it on the ground and trampled upon it? We, humans, especially women, tend to get hurt often and it’s often the people or person that’s close to us, perhaps our spouse or significant other that hurts us. 

Some intentionally hurt us; however, there are some who unintentionally hurt us. No matter what or who hurts us, we should always be comforted knowing that our Lord is always there to heal our broken heart. 

Often we go through circumstances where we aren’t able to share our problems with anyone, not even our spouse, in those times, we should remember to run to our Heavenly Father, who is waiting with open arms, ready to put us in His lap and listen to our heartaches and console us. He is always there to wipe away our tears and bind our wounds. 

The Psalmist wrote in Psalm 51:17, “My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise” (NIV). All we need to do is read His word and spend some time in prayer, where we will be comforted. If there’s anyone that can give us peace, it’s the Prince of Peace.
