Broken
By: Curtis Crawford
Series: (All)
The Hebrew word for broken in Psalm 34:18 is better understood as destroyed. Like a ship being torn in two from bow to stern rendering it decimated and sinking. This type of brokenness leaves one without hope, helpless, and maybe even considering death as the only way out. The good news of our Lord, is that He "is near to those who have a broken heart." If you have accepted Christ, the Holy Spirit lives inside of you and according to Romans 8:26, 27, "He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God."

It is time for many of us to ask God to "Turn away my eyes from looking at worthless things, And revive me in Your way" (Psalm 119:37).
