When your heart is broken & didn't need to be
Choices that could have been avoided
...with just some thought of the ripples.
Ripples that forever change the future.
Every choice is a ripple.
Every ripple reaches far.
Why must these ripples bring so much pain?
Is it possible for our ripples to bring healing?
My heart is broken.
I've made choices that split it.
Once close friends and the fissures grew.
Death created a chasm.
This brokenness feels so big.
Too big for me to fix alone.
Every choice is a ripple.
Every ripple reaches far.
Why must these ripples bring so much pain?
Is it possible for our ripples to bring healing?
My hope is that the ripples change.
My hope is that they bring healing instead of pain.
My hope is that these broken places can be knit together again.
Not by me. Not by you. Only by Him.
Forgiveness, will you be found in my ripples?
Love, will you be found in my ripples?
To those who have hurt me & brought me this pain*: I pray one day you see your ripples & the pain they inflicted. I pray you find Him, His Truth & His love to be your healing balm...before the choice that can't be undone.
*myself included
