The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
Psalm 34:18
The LORD is ... ... near! ... present! ... close! How do I know? He came close in the manger. He walked among me in ministry to the world. He suffered with me and for me at Calvary. I know that in tragedy, trial, heartbreak, and brokenness he is near to me to save me. So, will my heart be open to him and will I be seeking him to come near? Don't let troubles or heartache lead me to pull away from God or doubt his nearness. Let him draw close to me.Today would have been Rick's 31st birthday. A life cut short... I know where he is, there is no doubt. The tragedy, heart break and brokenness he suffered is gone. He is free from the pain of this side of heaven. He is close to God.
LORD, please be near me today. Make your presence known in my life. Father, I also ask that you bless those I know who are struggling with their faith, and with broken and disappointed
hearts. Please be active in their lives and make your presence known, today, on the Adventure in Middle Grove.
Happy Birthday!
