Sent to Bind Up the Broken Hearts





Recently I’ve repeatedly heard or read the words “Christ was sent to bind up the broken hearts”. I’m beginning to learn that when I hear the same thing repeated more than twice, it is God trying to teach me something and I need to stop and listen for what that is. I learned through the Spirit that these scriptures are not just referring to the healing of the brokenhearted. But that Christ was sent to bind them together, to seal those with a broken heart and a contrite spirit, to him, as the children of the House of Israel. And so I am trying to pray every day to replace my stony heart with a broken one so that I too can be sealed as His.
