Thankfulness does not come naturally to any of us. Thankfulness is a choice, even when we don’t feel thankful. I would say that at the time that we feel most like not giving thanks to God because of our shattered heart, it is the very time to choose to be thankful. Job wrote one of the most famous statements in the Bible while he suffered the loss ...
When we think about eternity and this life, which is only a vapor, we can place this tiny speck of time up against eternity and see just how inconsequential it is compared to eternity. James wrote “you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes” (James 4:14). Our fini...
When there is nothing more but to pour out your heart, then just do it. God can take it. Just tell Him about what has been done to your heart, how you’ve been crushed, but the psalmist says “The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18). It is God alone Who“heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds” (P...
One of the best ways to deal with a broken heart is to help those who have the same problem. For some, it might be a one hour visitation just to visit with someone in a nursing home, it might be writing a letter to a missionary to encourage them, or it could be just offering to help somebody that you know that needs help. Maybe you could invite the...
Some people’s greatest ministries are birthed out of great suffering so use your heartache as a means to comfort others who have been through similar situations. Paul writes about the God “who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted ...
If you have read the Book of Revelation, you might have a hint of what’s to come, but perhaps the greatest thing to come is that “the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God” (Rev 21:3) and we “will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads” ...
We shouldn’t take heartbreak personally. I know in my own life that I was crushed because a girl that I really wanted to marry was not interested in me, but now, looking back so many years later, I see that God said “No” to her because “There’s someone better for you” and that turned out to be the case. The loneliest marriages in the world are thos...
I think everyone will go through a period of sadness in their lives when their heart is broken and life seems hopeless but we can choose to be thankful for what we do have and learn to be content like Paul did. We can think about the time without end with Christ we’ll enjoy since this life’s but a vapor. We can pour out our hearts and tears before ...
- It’s okay to cry — and you probably should. Breakups almost always hurt. Maybe you didn’t see it coming, and the other person suddenly wants out. Maybe you were convinced it needed to end, but knew how hard it would be to tell them.
- Don’t try again too quickly. Knowing and embracing God’s design for permanence in marriage and dating will help us feel appropriately, but it will also help us take healthy next steps in our pursuit of marriage.
- You may have failed, but God didn’t. The relationship may be over because of a specific character flaw or failure. There are things about us — weaknesses or patterns of behavior — that may disqualify us for marriage with a particular person.
- You are better having loved and lost. There’s a unique shame and brokenness associated with breakups. Relationships and love may be celebrated more in the church than anywhere else because we (rightly) love marriage so much.
