A Heavy Heart
 
Psalm 25:16-17 (NLT) Turn to me and have mercy for I am alone and in deep distress. My problems go from bad to worse. Oh, save me from them all!
 
For the sake of our spiritual and physical health, we mustn’t believe that we are ever in a struggle by ourselves. As certain as God is in our life, He is always right here – not there – but right here with us. He is here before, throughout, and on the other side of our distress. He is the One Who brings us through the deepest, darkest, and heaviest seasons of our life. The Lord knows that a heavy heart is something difficult to bear. No matter what we try to do to ease the weighted sadness – nothing prevails for the broken spirit. Only God can relieve a heavy heart. He has a way about Him that is so sweet. Is your heart heavy? God already knows about it, but He wants you to talk directly to Him about what you’re going through for yourself. Turn to Him just as He has already turned toward you. The Reliever of your sorrow is here.
