Psalms 147:3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. So many people read this verse and can not put life experiences with it. However, very few of us know exactly what this verse is saying and what it represents to us.
Last August, my life turned completely upside down. I could have bailed on my wife but because I am a Christian I stood beside her as a friend. She took advantage of not only me but also my feelings but God wanted me to stay by her side through it all. I look back and wish I would have done some things differently but if I had then I would have been disobeying God.
God took my hand on August 19, 2008 and held on to me and is still holding. I still think that sometimes he had me by the collar too, but no matter what he walked me through the fire. My heart was broken, smashed, and in a million pieces, but He took a little twine and sewed it all back together.
Wednesday, August 26th is the day of my divorce hearing. Am I estatic….yep. Am I proud of where I am today….ABSOLUTELY! God would not have made it any different for me. He helped me survive…He healed my heart and He made it whole again. We have such an amazing God that He can put you through quite a mess and then walk you out of the other side.
