A Prayer for the Brokenhearted

«Father of the brokenhearted daughter… Oh, hear our prayer…

Give Your daughter the wisdom to know it: Hiding when you’re hurting won’t heal you and growing isolated can just let infection grow.

Give Your daughter the love to live it: The secret way to heal a broken heart is to let love leak out like an ocean through all the cracks.

The best way to tend to your open wounds is to open your arms… When you have Jesus on the inside, you’re never on the outside… When Love’s got hold of you, there isn’t a lie in the universe that can pull you apart.

And may all her trials be but a trail, all the stones on the way be but grace stairs to God. In name of Jesus who broke His heart to heal ours…Amen»
