Healing for the brokenhearted

1-23-22
 
Today’s devotion is based on Isaiah 61:1, “He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted.”
 
What difficulties are you facing that are almost too much to bear? What troubling circumstances surround the days that keep you awake at night? To whom can you turn for help?
 
You can turn to Jesus. God sent him “to bind up the brokenhearted.” He knows you; he understands you. And most importantly, he helps you. No matter what things are breaking apart in your life, you have an unbroken relationship with God. As a result, you can count on God, who loves and saves you, to help you with all the matters in your life that are breaking your heart.
 
Please pray with me; Jesus, I lift my heart in praise to you because you came to bind up my heart broken by sin. Help me to grow in my trust that as you loved me to be my Savior, you will also be with me every day to help through the difficulties and troubles that I face. In your blessed name, I pray. Amen.
