For The Broken Hearted

I know you are hurting right now. I know life seems like it is about to fall apart and all you want is for it all to go away. For it all to be fixed. I know you want it to go back to normal. I know you wish it was different. I know.

But it's not. The pain and hurt is still there. The worry and stress seem like they are going to drown you. It feels like you can't see the light in the dark. You feel alone and lost. You feel like there's no one who understands. You feel like you can't get out. That it won't end. The despair is overwhelming and it's all you can do to hang on to the tiny little string of hope you have left.

But there is hope. Not just your tiny string, but also the small strings of hope of all those who love you. Together they form a solid rope you can hang onto. A tapestry of love to wrap yourself in. It will end eventually. You will get out, and there are those who understand. They are standing next to you, and they will not falter in holding you. When you can't see the light, they will be the light that God sends. The worry and stress will not drown you if you hang onto that rope of hope. The pain and hurt will ease with time and the love of those around you. I can't promise everything will be prefect, but I can promise that you have a God who loves you. You have people who will stand with you, and when you don't have the strength to stand, they will hold you up.

So hang tight my broken hearted. For God is with you, and so am I.
