Praying for a Healed Heart

A heart is a wonderful thing

it can be broken, mended

kept, or given away

Hearts are so strong

and yet so fragile

and every one is different

Some are adorned with ribbons and string

flowers, and jewels

and pictures of puppies

But others are full of holes

covered with patches

and duct tape

and glue to hold it all together

  Most hearts are a combination of both

they are beautiful … but broken

So we use the ribbons to keep the pieces together

while the glue holds everything in place to heal

because every time you have to fix a heart

it gets stronger, more durable

So whether your heart is only cracked

or broken into a thousand pieces

 

Whether it is hurting

or has been healed

You have to remember

this is all a part of who you are
and who you are meant to be

 

So that you may help others

Who feel the same as you do

Whether it be in joy or pain

happiness or hurt

and everything in between
