Have you ever had your heart broken? I have. It can really really hurt and all the words in the world does not seem to heal a broken heart. What is the definition of a broken heart? In my humble opinion I would say the definition of a broken heart is when you are so sad or hurt over an experience that you have gone through or over something that someone has done to you that it consumes your entire being. It follows your days and nights and you feel as if your heart has been kicked out of your chest and you see it spiraling over the side of the universe. That about sum it up? I think so. The hard part about having your heart broken is the healing process. You always heal...the important thing is HOW you heal. It is important to heal in a positive way most conducive to your well being. Drawing from my own personal experience, I can say that it is hard getting over a broken heart. My heart was broken into pieces when I lost my only daughter. She died before she was born so I had to deliver her as a stillborn. I carried my baby to seven and half months. She would have been four years old last month at the end of August. Now this is the hardest year for me because we just celebrated my son Ethan's first birthday and although I am happy and blessed to have my son I could not help thinking of Autumn. I did not fall out and cry and wave my fists in the air screaming "Why God Why??? No I got down on my knees and prayed to God that my heart continue to heal as I continue to mourn her as another year goes by. I miss her. She may not have lived a day outside the womb but baby she lived inside of me. I felt her move, I felt her kick and I felt her as she grew inside of me for seven months up until the day she decided she was going to go back to the Lord. It was difficult letting go. I cried for months. I found that writing helped alot during that time and two years later I had my book put together and had it published in her honor. One of the poems I wrote dedicated to her is entitled "A Balm". If you are familar with balms it is a soothing salve to heal wounds. Jesus made balms when he healed the sick and created his wonderful miracles and this poem is based on the true life experience that I encountered the second I delivered my baby Autum's body and the spiritual encounter that followed. It was truly heart achingly beautiful. It took my breath away and it also brought me a second closer to healing than I ever though possible in my life. If you think you are all alone in the world, then you do not realize that there are Angels and of course the Almighty God looking out for you. The most wonderful thing about God is he is there all the time. You may not notice him, but he is there. He is most there when you have had a broken heart. When your heart is broken, your heart is open and bleeding; your heart is pouring out emotion and is ready and open for a cure. God enters in through a broken heart and heals. All you have to do is call out to him and even if you cannot speak, if all you can do is cry or even wail...just know your spirit is calling out to Him and He can enter in and make things well again. I know you have heard of the expression...it is greater later...well it is. God is the greatest and He can make all things greater. The most important thing to remember is when a heart breaks it is because that heart has loved and where there is love, there is always God; God is the healer that can mend all broken hearts bringing the pieces back together to form an even more beautiful loving reality than ever imagined.
