There's a tenderness that comes after being broken.
Sometimes you're taught rigid ideals and beliefs. Black and white.
Brokenness breaks down the rigidness like a meat tenderizer softens tough meat. The process is painful and hard to experience, but after...
After you get it
After you understand
After you can sit in the pit with those that hurt and feel their pain with them
There's nothing that can connect people more than when you can understand their hurts, their pains.
Connecting with someone's joy is easy. Nothing to it.
Connecting with someone in pain means you feel it. You take on some of their pain. That's not easy. Who wants to do that?
The broken.
Because we know.
We know what it feels like to be in such pain and turmoil and feel alone.
No one should feel that way.
So bring on your pain.
Let me see it
Let me feel it
Let me bring you to the One who can heal it.
