October 23 – Stars, Broken Hearts, Healing Wounds


“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars; he gives to all of them their names."  Psalm 147:3–4 (ESV)


Did you know that for a "small fee" anyone can give a star a name of their own? However it is applicable only for visible stars – visible from any place on earth throughout the year. Depending on the price a standard star, or constellation, or even a binary star system can be named for you.  But wait, God has already given names to all of them and not just to the ones that are visible to us. Our promise is this: God, determined how many stars there are,  He also heals our broken hearts and He treats the wounds His creatures get in this world. Has your heart been broken over the action of another or a loss in anyway of a loved one in your life? God who created every star in the universe and knows their number and has named each one; He is the healer of our broken heart and the wounds that it caused can be attended to by Him. Some wounds are serious and require stitching up. We all need a new heart and God does that for us too. Let’s look to God for His help every time we need it.
