I believe some of the most enriching moments in my life have come the moment after all my world has fallen apart. Though it hurts to be crushed by the world I live in, the form of my heart that comes after beats newer and with freshness.
I don’t believe for one second that the world has claimed victory over the hope of life. Or that the severe pain we sometimes experience is the knell of our faulted souls.
Rather, life, in the gracious hands of God, brings healing in the brokenness. And those spells of despair and hopelessness, when all seems lost, form into the very words that make us free.
