Broken Hearts Built! Blest!

The Lord is near to the brokenhearted – Psalm 34:18

Heart defines a comprehensiveness of an authentic human being; the wholesome of a person. It is an integral part of a man, where he desires, think, decides, plans, feel sorrow and enjoy something good happens, have passions. Ultimately, it a perfect center of a perfect person. Above all, the place God deals with in an individual. That is why it is important to keep our hearts pure and sacred by the power of the Holy Spirit. Our Lord searches every heart and understands every motive behind the thoughts (1 Chronicles 28:9).

Heart breaks for several reasons, it breaks when disappointment and discouragement strikes, when we lose, when people let us down, when sinfulness surrounds us, and due to our inability to overcome sin. A broken heart exhibits the inability of a person to stand alone. A broken heart depends on a Savior who will not let one down. A broken heart surrender one will and commit to the ways and will of the Lord. A broken heart is a crushed spirit that looks to God and says, “I have none except you”. Lord is looking for those who will humble themselves and depend on His grace for life. Most time, when our heart break, we chose loneliness, we sometimes, do not even go to God. Some time we blame our surroundings and God as well for the difficult life situations. Do you avoid see God when your life is crushed and heart broken? Do you come to the throne of grace to meet your God and pour all your issues? Are you burdened by the load and see no one around to lift the same? Here is a great promise for you. If you heart is broken with discouragements and surround by discomfort, our Lord is near you, close to you. He knows the desires of your heart know when to intervene and lift you up. He is there is supply your needs, to strengthen you, to pour out courage in your heart. Jesus says in John 14:1, “Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me”. He is near you and he will save you and redeem you from all your life circumstances. This verse reiterates His promise to you, that He is our “Emmanuel - God with us.” Our lives can be easily messed up by us and sometimes by others as well. But if you turn to Him, He will rush to you and rescue you from the any dangerous situations. Cry out and submit yourself to God for whatever circumstances haunting you. We have a God who hears our cry. His ears are open to our cries for help (Psalm 34:15). In fact, Jesus himself offered his prayers with tears. We read in Hebrews 5:7, “During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the One who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.” If you cry out to God, He will come close to you, He ill first wipe away your tears (The Sovereign LORD will wipe away the tears from all faces – Isaiah 25:8), will heal your broken heart and will enlighten your crushed spirit.

In his retirement, Thomas Jefferson founded the University of Virginia. Because Jefferson trusted that students would take their studies seriously, the code of discipline was lax. Unfortunately, his trust proved misplaced when the misbehavior of students led to a riot in which professors who tried to restore order were attacked. The following day a meeting was held between the university's board, of which Jefferson was a member, and defiant students. Jefferson began by saying, "This is one of the most painful events of my life," was overcome by emotion, and burst into tears. Another board member asked the rioters to come forward and give their names. Nearly every one did. Later, one of them said, "It was not Mr. Jefferson's words, but his tears."

Your Tear make God come Near You! Our Lord will Build your broken heart and will Bless you!

Prayer: Father, I am crushed from all sides and my broken in my heart and I cry out to you for help. I trust you for a solution and I thank you for taken this on you by your grace.

May you have a Great Day!
