He heals the brokenhearted, binding up their wounds. He counts the stars and calls them all by name. Psalm 147:3,4
At first glance, these two verses don’t seem to connect. They seem disjointed. But maybe not. In fact, I think verse four actually validates verse three.
There are billions of stars and for the most part, they all look about the same. Yet, God knows each one by name. As insignificant as some distant star is on the backside of the universe, it is important enough to God to have a name. He made it and it has purpose.
How much more is He attentive to the person who suffers the pain of a broken heart? They are not forgotten. Not lost in the crowd. They are not cast aside like worthless trash, although that may be how they feel. To Him, each person is priceless.
Like the stars, there are billions of people, yet he knows each one by name. Each has significance. Each life has value.
… for I am fearfully and wonderfully made… Psalm 139:14
He knows your name, my friend, and He cares about your needs. “He heals the brokenhearted, binding up their wounds.”
Keep your trust in Him today!
