Psalm 147:3
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
I came to a certain revelation. A broken heart can bleed everywhere. We talk about how brokenness ultimately becomes malfunction or dysfunction. Yet we never take the time to speak about the life-giving blood that runs out of us when our hearts have been shattered.
In medicine, there is an actual condition called broken heart syndrome. People have actually died from grief and other hardship. No physical element or defect was involved with their death. Just overwhelming grief has taken life away from this earth.
The certainty of God‘s ability to heal not only begins in our souls, but it also registers in our emotions and spirit. Christ is always near to those who have broken hearts. Christ is always near to those who are in need of healing. Acknowledge your brokenness, but never forget the healer is ready to bind up your bleeding heart.
