God heals the contrite heart through His grace and mercy, as highlighted in Isaiah 57:18, where He promises restoration to the broken-hearted.
God's healing of the contrite heart is an act of divine grace, fully exemplified in Isaiah 57:18, where He says He will heal the ways of those who return to Him. This healing process involves recognizing our sinful nature and our desperate need for redemption through Christ. The work of salvation is all of grace, not dependent on our merit but on Christ's atoning sacrifice. Moreover, God leads and comforts those with contrite hearts, as Isaiah 57:19 notes, creating within them a renewed spirit and a song of praise. This underscores the transformative power of God's love for those who humbly seek Him.
