still held
Psalm 34:18
Grace and peace be with you right now friend! Heartbreak isn’t just from romance—it’s the moment life knocks the wind out of you. It’s the friendship that faded without an explanation, the job opportunity that slipped through your fingers, the dream that didn’t come to pass, or the deep loss that left you feeling abandoned. If you’ve ever felt like your heart is in a million pieces, I see you. But even more than that—God sees you.
Here’s the truth: even when your heart breaks, God’s love holds the pieces together.
heartbreak hurts, but it won’t break you
I remember a season in my life when I prayed for something so earnestly, convinced that God would show up in the exact way I imagined. I was all in—heart, soul, and mind—only to have the door slammed shut. It left me feeling lost, questioning if I had misheard God altogether. Why would He allow this pain? Why does healing feel so slow?
Maybe you’ve been there too. Maybe you’re there now. But here’s what I learned: Just because you feel abandoned doesn’t mean you are.
God isn’t distant from your pain—He’s sitting in it with you, wrapping you in a love so unshakable, so relentless, that no amount of heartbreak can undo it.
biblical heartbreak, divine healing
When I think about heartbreak, Ruth immediately comes to mind. She lost everything—her husband, her home, her future. She had every reason to feel forsaken, but instead of staying stuck in her grief, she clung to God, stepped out in faith, and walked into a new season of restoration.
Her story teaches us that heartbreak doesn’t get the final word—God does.
practical steps to healing through God’s love
Healing isn’t just about moving on—it’s about moving forward with God. Here are some ways to start:
Journal Your Healing Journey – Write down your honest feelings, prayers, and even your frustrations with God. Healing begins with acknowledging the pain.
Worship Through the Tears – There’s something powerful about worshiping when you don’t feel like it. Your praise confuses the enemy.
Pray Honest Prayers – God isn’t afraid of your questions or your emotions. Tell Him how you really feel.
Surround Yourself with Supportive Community – Healing doesn’t happen in isolation. Let people pray for you, encourage you, and remind you of truth when you forget.
Trust God’s Timing – Just because you don’t see the purpose in your pain now doesn’t mean God isn’t working behind the scenes.
love that won’t let go
One day, you’ll look back and see that the very thing that shattered you was the thing God used to shape you. What feels like the end is often the beginning of something new.
Your heart may feel broken, but God’s love is unshakable. He won’t leave you here. Restoration is coming. Amen!
in harmony,
