“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18

In the moments when you’ve felt most abandoned, I was closest. I never left you — not for a second.

You don’t have to earn My closeness; you only need to become aware of it. I’m here, nearer than your next breath, wrapping you in a love that doesn’t waver when you’re broken.

Reflection Questions

  • When have you felt God was far but He was actually near?

  • How can you let His nearness comfort you today?

Prayer

Jesus, Thank You for being close even when I didn’t see You. Help me rest in Your nearness now. Amen.
