This post is for my buddies out there who have at one time been heartbroken and needed direction or just someone to validate that things will get better....and God assures us that things WILL get better!
"Heart-shattered lives ready for love don't for a moment escape God's notice."
Psalm 22:24 (The Message)
"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those who are crushed in spirit."
Psalm 34:18
"Why are you down in the dumps, dear soul? Why are you crying the blues? Fix my eyes on God--soon I'll be praising again. He puts a smile on my face. He's my God."
Psalm 42:5-6 (The Message)

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28).
"No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that netiher death nor life, neither angels no demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor
depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans
8:37-39).
Not sure if anyone is looking for any extra devotionals to do, but the church we go to up here is starting a new series they call
"FencePosts", which is studying "what we believe and why we believe
it" - going back to fundamentals - so far, it's a lot like a
history/philosophy class - thought you might be interested:
Here's the first sermon:

And here is the "going deeper" stuff:

You know, for your spare time :). But if you do have time, it seems
pretty good so far, fairly in-your-face stuff.
Thanks, Ariel. :) This hits home for me this week.
God is full of shit. Things only get worse from here.
