What Becomes of the Brokenhearted?

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; He rescues those whose spirits are crushed.  Psalm 34:18

Have you ever struggled for the words to offer a friend or neighbor when tragedy strikes and a loved one is lost?  I certainly have and quite honestly, there is no easy cure for a broken heart.  There is no prescription you can take to make everything better and the healing process takes a lot of time.

A broken heart needs a different kind of healing. Generous doses of compassion, comfort, encouragement, love, and listening will eventually restore the joy and hope to a hurting soul.

We must never forget that God is the master healer. As a loving friend, we can offer help, but none like the power our loving Father. When you are hurt and heartbroken, move closer to God instead of running away from Him.

He is the greatest source of healing, peace, and joy; there is nothing this world as to offer that even comes close....
