"IF IT DOESN'T BREAK YOUR HEART IT ISN'T LOVE." - SWITCHFOOT
Broken heart
(props to)
"The phrase “break your heart” now has such a negative, almost ruthless connotation, but if you strip off the layers of triteness from overuse and cultural context, it’s one of the most beautiful, uplifting, poetic phrases in our language.
Because you see…
a broken heart is a heart that has been healed.
a broken heart is a heart that has reached its acme, its most perfect form, for it is when our hearts are completely broken that our hearts resemble God’s…for isn’t His heart continually breaking for us?
a broken heart is a heart that is whole, complete, for it is when we are broken of ourselves, of our desires, of our self-dependence that the Holy Spirit can reside and overflow within us.
a broken heart is vulnerability, and vulnerability is the highest form of courage (in my opinion).
a beautiful paradox huh?"
