all my favorite people are broken

Everybody around me is aching in one way or another. No situation is hopeless, but I sometimes feel helpless. What can I do? My prayers are heartfelt, but they seem so empty. I hold no power.
I am genuinely fine, I can't complain, but my heart hurts for the people around me. Broken homes, broken spirits, broken dreams. God resonates with our pain, and our tears are mirrored in his eyes, but His hands are not torn by our shards-- He alone has the power to rebuild our lives.

    You have a beautiful heart, Anne.

    There's beauty in the broken, sometimes things have to be at their breaking for restoration and growth.
