binding up the brokenhearted

"...the life of a Christian is never about sameness. It's always about change. That's why we must learn to survive and once again thrive when change involves heartbreaking loss. We're being conformed to the image of Christ. When our heart is hemorrhaging with grief and loss, never forget that Christ binds and compresses it with a nail scarred hand. Life will never be the same [but Christ invites us] to rise to a new life- a more compassionate life, a wiser life, a more productive life. And, yes, even a better life." ~Beth Moore
