"The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit."
God does not wait for you to feel better before drawing close. His nearness is not a reward for composure — it is a promise for the crushed. If sorrow is your companion today, know that He is closer still.
Lord, in this ache, be near. Meet me not with answers I cannot yet hold, but with Your presence I can. Amen.
