The Healer Of The Brokenhearted – Sandra Sellmer-Kersten

Of all the things Jesus could have declared about His purpose, He began with this: “I have come to heal the brokenhearted.”The ‘heart’ in Scripture speaks of the inner person. The heart means the very core of who we are; the mind, the will, the emotions, the memory, and the desires. Healing the heart means healing every part of who we are at a deep level. Jesus made it clear that this was His purpose.The brokenness He described carries a profound meaning. The word used means shattered, fractured beyond repair. It describes something in pieces, not just damaged, but seemingly ruined. Jesus said He came to heal that kind of brokenness.This is very good news. Jesus heals. He delivers. He restores. He calls. He finishes what He starts. For every broken place, He brings wholeness. For every hidden wound, He brings comfort. For every weary heart, He brings strength to run again.
