When Your Heart Is Breaking

Have you ever had your heart ache so bad that you were sure it would just fracture into tiny pieces? This is how I feel when I see my big brother who is dying, a little every day, struggle to stand, breathe or eat. My soul actually is in deep pain, it is wounded, seeping raw emotions that I wish I did not have to experience. God did not plan for our life to be this way. Adam and Eve were tempted by Satan and brought sin into all of us. That corruption changed everything!! From one man man sin entered all! God's beautiful creation was tainted and forever sin would scar man's soul. But God who is rich in mercy did not let Satan ruin His plan. He sent His Son to defeat Satan! Satan, you are defeated and Christ is king! People ask,"How can God let innocent people die"? Remember what changed God's perfect plan for man? Satan and his temptation that leads to sin! So if you look for blame, look to Satan and his plan to entice man to rebellion against God. You better praise God for not destroying all mankind for we surely deserve it.

Who Christ is...
Phil.2:5-11

5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 
6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 
7 but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant,being born in the likeness of men. 
8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 
9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 
10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 
11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 

Who man is...
Gen.1:27 

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Job 7:17

What is man, that you make so much of him, and that you set your heart on him
Deuteronomy 4:32 
Ask now about the former days, long before your time, from the day God created man on the earth; ask from one end of the heavens to the other. Has anything so great as this ever happened, or has anything like it ever been heard of?

So remember when you seem to be all alone, there is One who is there. He was there when He took your place on that cross, there when He intercedes for you before God and He is coming again soon to take you home!
