Hope For a Broken Heart

Hope For a Broken Heart

 “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.” (Psalm 51:17)

According to Dr. McNair Wilson; “Perhaps the greatest psychological, spiritual and medical need that all people have is the need for hope.” (Hope for Each Day)

A broken heart can be the caused for several reasons. Many of them are beyond our control while some were because of our own doing. We may have a broken hearts because: 1- We are in desperate need of love. 2- We see sin in our midst. 3- We have a righteous indignation. 4- We were rejected by someone for something or by someone special. 5- We get disappointed due to circumstances and problems. 6- We have unanswered prayers. 7- Our hearts are broken for the lost world.

Jesus is the only hope and the hope of every broken spirit.  “18-The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. 19- The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.”(Psalm 34:18- 19)

“What If It Will Not Grow?

“17- Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: 18- Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.” (Habbakkuk 3:17- 18 KJV)

I never heard a farmer planting a seed, and thinking or complaining, and making negative remarks such as; “The seed may not grow...” We don’t question the process or the result. Our main focus is to exercise the process, and be faithful in cultivating and in watering the seedlings.

Can you rejoice in the Lord in spite of difficulties? Will you still serve Him even when the ministry is not going in the direction that you wanted it to be? Do you have difficulties in the work of the Lord ?  Remember, our job and responsibilities is to obey, fulfill our duties, and to love the Lord, be faithful to HIM... because the results belongs to Him.

Dangerous Time

“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.” (II Timothy 3:1)

Apostle Paul saw the future in this verse as he literally experienced it in his times. No doubt about it; we are all living in the most dangerous and perilous times in human history. We cannot deny the fact that we are always in danger even if we’re under our own roof. We have fear in our lives because of what’s going on in every corner of the world. Living in a secured and wealthy environment will not give us the assurance to keep us from any dangers such as physical and spiritual sickness, accident, death or financial insolvent. God’s protection to His children does not mean that we are free from any dangerous situations.

Apostle Paul used the words, “…in the last days perilous times shall come.” “The last days” could mean from his time, during our time, and the time to come. One of the dangers that I’m afraid of as a pastor is something within me. It’s the danger of losing my passion for the lost souls, losing my passion to preach the Word of God, losing my passion and my tears as I stand in the pulpit. What could be worst if I lost my passion to touch and influence lives? Notice the heart of a man who was in the brink of danger and death. (Acts 20:31) “Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.”

Be Faithful to God

“O LORD, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.” (Isaiah 25:1)

People will put their trust to a friend, and some were faithful unto the end, but believers must put their trust in God and be faithful to Him. You stand for what is right and for the truth, and keep doing that which is right. Jesus said; “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. “ (Matthew 6:33) Jesus Christ expects every Christians to put Him first in their life and He wanted you to identify yourself with the Lord.,
