Why is it Important to be Heartbroken?
Thoughts from Oswald Chambers:
"The first thing God does is get us grounded on strong reality and truth.
He does this until our cares for ourselves individually have been brought
into submission to His way for the purpose of His redemption.
Why shouldn't we experience heartbreak?
Through those doors God is opening up ways of fellowship with His Son.
Most of us collapse at the first grip of pain. We sit down at the door of God's purpose and enter a slow death through self-pity. And all the so-called Christian sympathy of others helps us to our death bed.
But God will not. He comes with the grip of the pierced hand of His Son,
as if to say, "Enter into fellowship with Me; arise and shine."
If God can accomplish His purposes in this world through a broken heart,
then why not thank Him for breaking yours?"
[Yes, why not thank Him for breaking mine?]
