Broken Hearted?

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
    and saves those who are crushed in spirit.Psalm 34:18 NIV Bible Gateway

Your heart may be broken right now because of many situations in life. Sometimes being misunderstood causes a broken heart. Death of a spouse, medical diagnoses, separation from family, whatever it is heartbreak is real to those going through it. 

When you are heart broken you need to grab hold of things that lift you up. Read the Bible in the Psalms for a start. 

Make a list of things you are grateful for and cast off wrong or stinking thinking which can tend to make you cave to sorrow. See if there is someone you can help or send a card to a friend. Just go and be Jesus to someone. 

PRAYER: I need you Lord when I start to pity myself help me realize that is the enemy trying to get my eyes off of you. I choose to be thankful. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
