Hope in Times of Loss
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.—Psalm 34:18 (NIV)
And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.—Matthew 14:36 (KJV)
This verse is a beautiful reminder that all it takes to feel complete is to reach out and touch God. Even if it’s only the hem of His garment, if your desire is real, you will be made perfectly whole. You’ll no longer be defeated by your fears or feel confused by inner conflict. You will be at peace.
Dear Lord, I reach out to You today for healing and help on this journey. I long to be perfectly whole.

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.—Psalm 34:18 (NIV)
