Friend of a Wounded Heart

You are my refuge and my shield; I have put my hope in your word.

Psalm 119:114

You might recognize the title of a popular song in the 80’s by Wayne Watson in the title of this devotion. What a great reminder this is this morning in this passage in the book of Psalms of the refuge and protection and friend that we find in our relationship with Jesus Christ. As the song writer and performer so eloquently states in yet another track from the same album – “There is a harbor, there is a resting place, there is a refuge – a quiet sound; there is a lighthouse, there is a peace be still, there is an anchor to higher ground.” Jesus does indeed meet you right where you are this morning in the middle of this great battle that we are fighting to share His love with the rest of the world. He meets you right in the middle of your pain and uncertainty; he meets you even in the midst of failure and regret as He stands with His arms open wide and love in His eyes just waiting for you to come and rest in the comfort and protection of His awesome love. Spend some time with Him today – say a prayer to your Father and Friend, pour out your heart to Him and just see how His Spirit will heal your wounds and set you free.
