He is Close to the Brokenhearted

I don’t know about you, but it seems there are times in my life when it rains and it pours and it rains some more.  While it is tempting to sink into depression, it is better to trust in the LORD.  It is not a vain trust.  Nor is it a fruitless one.  Even though we might not see immediate fruit from our faith, we can be assured that looking to Jesus will be its own reward someday.  There are only few things that we can bring with us to heaven.  Among those are:  other people, our faith, and our personal knowledge of Jesus.  Let this sustain you as you persevere: He is Close to the Brokenhearted.
