Broken Hearted


 Nothing is more needful to true godliness than a contrite heart, which means, broken off from every self-confidence, it meant something far deeper than this when Jesus told His disciples to carry their cross. He said to them, “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me” (Luke 9:23). In its depth, Broken hearted are emotionally and mentally beat,-  bruised, Crushed and destroyed.

What I'm saying is that, one who has a broken and contrite heart is the one who is completely in control by God. In other words, He is completely yielded mind, body, heart and soul to the almighty and loving will of God.

Nothing can encourage as such, but only the free, rich grace of the gospel of Christ Jesus.
 The believers are taken under the special protection of the Lord, yet we all have our own share of crosses in this world, and there are even those that hate them. From the mercy of Heaven, and the malice of hell, the afflictions of the believers are many. But whatever troubles befall them, shall not hurt their souls, for God keeps them from troubles. 

The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken hearted,  He "dwells with" them, "looks to them, .... revives their heart, and He binds their wounds and "saves" them. 
Because to follow Christ will also mean, we also have to carry our cross.

“Anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple” (Luke 14:27)

There is also great assurance in knowing that, with God's aid, we can be overcomers, more than conquerors.
Jesus never promised us that life as a believers would be easy. But  He only promised that it would be rewarding. The Christian life is not a comfortable life, but it is a fulfilling one. Truly, God is good!
