I was reflecting tonight on someone who is broken, and trying to see life through their eyes:
Where do you go when you are broken,
When life seems quite beyond fixing?
Where do you turn when your heart is torn
And you fear it won’t be whole again?
Where do you turn when everything looks good on the outside,
But deep inside there is a part of you that is broken?
A part of you that colors your whole life with darkness,
Where light doesn’t seem to shine?
Turn to someone who has been broken too,
Who can mend the pieces of your heart,
Who understands your brokenness
Because he was broken for you.
It was for you he died on a cross in brokenness and pain,
To pay a debt he didn’t owe with a price we couldn’t pay.
Your broken heart fixed in his eyes, he gave it all for you,
To rescue you and draw you close, to make you whole in him.
Turn to the light who shines in darkest pain,
With grace and peace and love.
Let him shine deep within your heart
And let him bring you hope.
