Gaping hole

I was talking to someone the other day who was really hurting. They suddenly have a gaping hole in their heart.

I think that most of us have felt this at one time or another. The death of a loved one, a divorce, the loss of a friend.

And there is this gaping hole.

I thought of the words from the Coldplay song, Fix you: Tears stream down your face - when you lose something you cannot replace.

Most of the time when people hurt, I don't know how to fix it for them.  So you sit, and you listen and you hug them.

If you are hurting today, my heart goes out to you.  I am so sorry for your loss.

But please remember, it is still a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
