For All of the Broken Hearts

For all of the broken hearts around the world this day, there is One who understands, who provides comfort beyond all comprehension.

"He was despised and forsaken of men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and like one from whom men hide their face, He was despised, and we did not esteem Him" (Isaiah 53:3).

"The righteous cry, and the LORD hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit" (Psalm 34:17-18).

"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds" (Psalm 147:3).

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For just as the sufferings of Christ are ours in abundance, so also our comfort is abundant through Christ" (2 Corinthians 1:3-5).

"Now may our Lord Jesus Christ and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope by grace, comfort and strength your hearts in every good work and word" (2 Thessalonians 2:16-17).
