Sometimes your soul is so restless you wake up at three a.m. in anguish and can't go back to sleep.
Sometimes the weight in your chest is so heavy, you can't even find the small relief brought by tears.
"He was a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering." (Isaiah 53:3)
"The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit." (Psalm 34:18)
Sometimes the only comfort is knowing a God who suffered, who came down into this broken, disfigured world to be with His people and died so He could have a relationship with you. The only balm for a broken heart and a shattered world is a God who answers with Himself.
