Title: The God of Your Heart
Read Psalm 147:1-11
The God of the galaxies is also the God of the
brokenhearted. That's what David tells us in
verses 3 and 4: "He heals the brokenhearted and
binds up their wounds. He counts the number of
the stars; He calls them all by name."
The contrast we see in these two verses--between
the heavens and the broken heart--ought to
encourage us. God made the heavens. He spoke and
it was done. His creation stood steadfast. The
God who made the heavens is concerned about your
broken heart. Others may not be concerned, but
God is. He's not so far away that He doesn't know
your heart is hurting. He's not so great that He
can't stoop down to you when you are pained,
weeping and looking for help.
Yes, the God of the heavens is the God of your
heart. The God who numbers and names the stars
knows your needs. He knows all about you, and
thus He is able to meet your every need. The God
who controls the planets in their orbits is able
to take the pieces of your broken heart and put
them together again. He will heal your broken
heart, provided you give Him all the pieces and
yield to His tender love.
"Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His
understanding is infinite" (v. 5). His love and
understanding are limitless. His power is great.
He can do what needs to be done.
* * *
The One who set the galaxies in motion is the
same One who addresses your needs. There is no
limit to God's love, His understanding or His
power. Perhaps you have a broken heart today.
Give Him the pieces and let Him heal your heart.
