Broken in heart broken hearted, to me denotes a deep void of depression or sadness. Even from our lowest point Jehovah can heal mend us and bring us back to a good relationship with him. This scripture highlights how deeply Jehovah God cares for us. When it states he heals our wounds, I think of a Father who tenderly taking care of the cuts and bruises on his child. This scripture draws me closer to my heavenly father knowing he cares so deeply for his creation.

I WILL JUST LIKE TO SAY IT IS A BLESSING TO BE BLESSED BY GOD TO EVEN HAVE CHILDREN, I HAVE JUST WENT THROUGH A IVF PROCEDURE IN AUGUST AND I HAD 15 EGGS THAT FERTILIZED THAT IS A TRUE BLESSING FROM GOD. I WENT FROM NEVER FERTILIZING NONE TO 15. THAT 'S A BIG DIFFERENCE. I HAD ONE OF MY EMBRYO 'S TRANSFERED IN MY WOMB ON 10 09 14. AND FROM THAT DAY I CLAIMED MY VICTORY AND MADE MY DECLARATION THAT MY FRUIT SHALL REMAIN IN JESUS NAME. I DO BELIEVE IT IN MY HEART THAT IT WILL REMAIN. I TOOK MY PREGNANCY TEST THIS MORNING AND IN JESUS NAME IT WILL BE MY FIRST POSITIVE PREGNANCY TEST AFTER TRYING FOR 6 YEARS.. GLORY BE TO GOD. ONLY HE BLESSES THE FRUIT OF THE WOMB.

My problem with psalm 127 3 is if children are gift and reward from God,what about other descent families that donot have this, is God partial in his distribution? Let us appreciate him for all his wonderful gifts.

Children and the marriage of their parents is sacred in Gods eyes. He can restore anything. And speaks to our hearts.

What if it means the pure children are Gods and we are rewarded with knowing How it feels to be a parents or lose children as God has.

Eunice's comment on 2013-08-10 17:26:30:

Indeed God is good to those that seek him with a sincere heart, children don't come from the east, nor west, nor south nor north but From God Almighty. Most people often misunderstood this verse of the bible and that is why it will never come to p*** in their lives. So sister and brothers acknowledge the Almighty God and He will supply ur Needs. Remember Sarah, Hannah n many others to numerous to mention

Kim's comment on 2013-05-22 00:31:33:

I have been having a hard time lately because I had a miscarriage and was questioning why this happened to me. But reading this passage Along with other verses helped me realize that having a child IS a reward and with the situation Ive been in lately, i know i wouldn't have been able to give my child everything it needs and deserves. I feel like after almost dying trying to keep him, it was a sign from god that I need to improve my life and be more careful about my decisions in order to be blessed with a child. I understand now that god wasn't punishing me, I feel like he knew it was for the best and I'm just grateful that I'm still able to have kids when I'm ready. It is hard but i realize what's important to me now and it may have been the eye opener I needed to find myself, be closer to god, and appreciate what I do have.

Unonymous's comment on 2013-04-19 02:15:09:

These words are like new, fresh and out of the box. I'm at ease by just reading them over and over, because I come from a situation where my sons were born out of wedlock and was beating myself up; as I raise them daily I always ask God why are they 2, how will i manage with everything. But these word are like holding my sore heart with comfort, they take the pain away and they make me strong ang grateful to God always. Thank you

Monica's comment on 2013-03-20 08:25:48:

At a time when my heart is aching and still mournig my dear husband. These words are encouraging and yes, when you do cry out, God will give you strength. I praise His name!

To have the power of God come over you is like nothing else. Lots of times I feel God and restrain myself, afraid of what others will think.Then I feel sad I didn't respond to my Lord. When you do allow the holy spirit to fall on you it is such a refreshing feeling. Like a child on a warm summer day with no worries.

Adam's comment on 2011-02-18 04:05:28:

I'm going thru a SERIOUS HEARTACHE right now...Half being my own IMMATURITY and the other half "I GOT PLAYED". This verse gives me SUCH HOPE and TRUST in the LORD that everything will work out if i just have Patience.
