20 Not one of their bones
will ever be broken.
Psalm 34:20
Contemporary English Version (CEV)
My poor grandson sure wishes that were true tonight. Today he was playing outside for recess and fell down onto his elbow. Some how he fell just right and broke it. He had to go into surgery to have it set with a couple of pins. Last I talked to his daddy, Joey was not a happy camper. Who can blame him? Sure wish I could be there to hold the sweet thing.
Humans are so tough on themselves. We bruise, break, cut and burn ourselves all the time. As a matter of fact I was silly enough to step on a rake last evening and hit myself in the head. Still have the bump. What a goof.
We are fragile. We do bend ourselves past the point of breaking all the time. Good thing we have a wonderful, loving creator who can heal our bones, mend our broken skin, soothe the hurts we have and bring peace to the weary.
Psalm 147:3 tells us exactly that.......
and heals our bodies.
So the next time you are hurting, no matter how the hurt came, remember to turn to the one who can and will make everything right!
Blessings!
