Bone Crusher

Let me hear joy and gladness: let the bones you have crushed rejoice. Psalm 51:8 in my ladies small group this is one of the verses I had to breakdown its meaning. I have never broken a bone before, but my friend Katie did the other week in the snow and ice. She talked about how it throbbed and the pain she was in. We casually read this verse and go on,but when you break it apart you realized that it is saying, when things are painful, hurting, distressed, uncomfortable, impaired, or difficult, I need to rejoice. I need to be joyful and glad. The verse also states that God has crushed the bone. Sometimes he has to break us so that we can rejoice. A small verse with alot to think about.
