The Lord Is Close
“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those whose spirits are crushed.”
When your heart aches, you are not abandoned - you are embraced. God is near in the pain, closer than your next breath. You may not always feel His presence, but He’s never far from the brokenhearted. Let His nearness comfort you. You’re not forgotten, and your pain is not unseen. You're held in the arms of the Healer.
Prayer
Lord, draw near to me in my pain. Heal what’s broken and restore what’s crushed. Thank You for never leaving me. Amen.
