Psalm 34:18 "The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart,
and saves such as have a contrite spirit."
A hammer is necessary to use in breaking to pieces the ore first, and then
plating out the metal when it has been separated from the ore. To have a
contrite spirit, we need to have experienced this type of "pounding" to be pure
and able to be used by our Lord. As much as this hurts, it brings forth
everlasting peace and joy. The Lord perfects that which He loves!
I encourage you today, that if you have had a broken heart, or a contrite
spirit, that you will not lose hope. You'll believe that when this trial is over
in your life, that you'll be as white as snow. Peaceful as a dove and as strong
as an ox!
