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

People hurt.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve seen some painful things in my life. But the one thing that stands out more than any of them is one situation in particular.<\/p>\n

It was a regular summer afternoon. As I was taking a nap on my couch, I was awakened by sirens going by our home. As I jumped up, I thought, that’s a bad accident.<\/p>\n

A short time later, I got the dreaded phone call. And it brought me to my knees.<\/p>\n

It was the most awful accident I had ever heard of. My brother\u2019s child had fallen out of a moving car and not survive.<\/p>\n

On a different day at an earlier time, this same brother woke up one morning to find that his child at that time was not breathing. They quickly raced the child to the hospital, but the child was gone. He lost two of his beautiful children.<\/p>\n

We might say, how much can a person take? How can they go on living after such terrible pain?<\/p>\n

Subsequently, this man has spent a lot of his life in and out of prison. He has never gotten his life together. He struggles with alcohol addiction.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t know what he deals with, but God does.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve learned to not look at a person from the outside, because none of us are perfect and we make bad choices at times, but, to let God show me their heart.<\/p>\n

I am praying for people today that hurt. I don\u2019t know what you\u2019ve been through, but God does.<\/p>\n

Don’t give up. Stay in the fight. He will help heal your broken heart.<\/p>\n

Dear God,<\/p>\n

I lift up that one today who is broken, crushed, hurting, and can\u2019t find a reason to keep on living. That one who is so full of guilt and shame. That one who is feeling like there is no hope left. Touch them with your hand, and heal their brokenness.<\/p>\n

Help them, Lord, to know that You are near.<\/p>\n

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen<\/p>\n
