A Note to the Brokenhearted

Something significant speaks to me when I hear about those who struggle and suffer, knowing those hard places are difficult to endure. The things this life has walked me through have been nothing compared to the roads so many others have walked. Still, struggle has not always been a stranger to me. So I lift up in prayer those whose crosses I cannot bear, believing with my whole heart that Christ is the one who can. In Psalm 34:18 I read, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." Are you among the brokenhearted today? Please know the Lord is close to you, and you have a sister in Christ who can lift you up in prayer!
