Psalm Chapter 34 Verse 18
“The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.”
Comfort in sorrow reminds believers that God draws near to the brokenhearted. This message is echoed in the hymn Abide With Me, which offers a gentle reminder of Gods steady presence and the hope He provides. Reading the Bible is essential for every Christian because it shapes the mind, nourishes the spirit, and anchors the soul in the promises of God. Scripture brings clarity when life feels confusing, comfort when the heart feels burdened, and wisdom for every step of the journey. Through the living words of the Bible, believers learn how to trust God more fully, walk with courage, and grow in grace each day. The verse declares, The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
