There are many people in our world today that are broken. Their hearts have been hurt by a marriage that failed for one reason or another. There are people who have experienced a very difficult childhood where they experienced abandonment and abuse. There are people all around us that are in desperate situations that they themselves just can't seem to fix.
There are many people who feel depressed and pushed to their very limit. There are many people who have no peace in their hearts whatsoever. There are many people who have turned to drugs, alcohol, or even sex to try to dull the emptiness and void they feel in their hearts and lives. Many people just feel all alone. Some people feel like they have no one who understands. There are many people who are on the very verge of giving up on everything.
There is someone who understands exactly what they are going through and the pain they are feeling. The Lord Jesus Christ understands the difficulties that life can bring. He knows that this world is a world of sorrows and one of brokenness. Sin has wrecked our world and it all started back in the Garden of Eden when Adam and Eve disobeyed God and ate from the forbidden tree. It was then Adam and Eve became spiritually dead and everyone born since have entered the world separated from the Living God.
God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, on a rescue mission to save us from our sins and to reconcile us back to God because He loves us so very much. Jesus lived a perfect and sinless life. Jesus went and died on the Cross for our sins, past, present, and future. God raised Jesus from the dead on the third day and He is now at the right hand of the Father in Heaven. One Day the Lord Jesus Christ will return as the King of kings and Lord of lords.
The Lord didn't leave us as orphans, however, but He gives the Holy Spirit to indwell everyone who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We must realize that we are sinners and we can't save ourselves. Our good works are not good enough for us to enter into God's Holy presence. We can only come through the blood of Christ. It is through what Jesus did on the Cross that we are reconciled back to God.
Jesus was broken on the Cross for our brokenness. We must come to Him in faith and bring to Him our hurts, our painful memories, and the brokenness that we feel. We must lay it all at the foot of the Cross. We can't carry the burdens that weigh us down on our own. We are too weak in our own strength. We must give them to Jesus Christ.
He tells us in Matthew 11:28-30 to come to Him and find rest from those burdens that we try to carry ourselves in our own strength and power. We can't do it on our own we must hand over everything to the Lord. The Lord wants us to come to Him and trust Him with our brokenness.
The Lord can heal your broken heart if you allow Him to. He can help heal those wounds that no one else can see. Come to Him. He is waiting for you with opened arms.
I would like to encourage you to surrender your hurts and the wounds on your hearts to Jesus. Find forgiveness through Jesus Christ and forgive those who have hurt you. Tell those who don't know Jesus that they can come to Him and find reconciliation with God and He can heal their wounded hearts.
Lord,
We praise Your Name.
You are Holy.
Help us to reach out to those who are broken with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Lord heal those hearts that are broken and lonely.
I pray for those who are facing sorrows and those who feel at the end of their rope.
Come Soon Lord Jesus.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen.
