Sometimes life gets so, very hard. Sometimes it feels almost impossible to let the funny things sink in past the momentary smile. Somehow your soul returns to the deep aching, your heart hits the bottom, and it feels like there's nothing you can do but break. Over and over.
If you're in that spot...this is for you.
If you're not, save this for a rainy day.
Oh precious soul. You are not alone. It can feel like it. It can seem like it. But I need you to know that you are so precious to the Author of it all that He has chosen exactly what you can handle, and I promise you can do this. You are worth it. You are beautiful. Oh, so beautiful. Did you see the sunset today? Did you see the tiny little flower that smiled in the sunshine? Did you see somebody smile? Did you feel the wind wrap you in its arms?
The hands that made all of it, even the pinks and oranges that fill up the great beyond...those hands made you. And that sunset doesn't even compare.
He wanted you to see the sky in all its glory. He wanted you to smile. He wanted you to know He's thinking of you. He hasn't left. No, He won't leave. He's much, much bigger than that.
Hold on. Please, hold on and take heart. A miracle is coming.
I hope you read this over and over until your heart hears it.
It's hard to talk to a broken person without making them feel more broken. I would know, I've been broken. I am broken. It's hard to hear the truth behind well-intentioned words. It's hard not to just cry forever. Surprisingly enough, I'm a huge fan of crying so maybe you should just try to cry as long as possible. You'll stop eventually, and you'll realize there is an end to tears. And if there's an end to tears, then there can be an end to the huge hurting within your inner most being...Maybe it's not today, maybe not tomorrow, but like those precious tears of yours, there will be something beautiful that glimmers and shines through this.
Hold on. Please, hold on and take heart. A miracle is coming.
