Broken To be Open

When we talk about brokenness of the heart, it brings a lot of emotions. Wounded by failed relationships and betrayed by friends and love ones, we coiled on ourselves and built a wall, so strong and so high that we are unable to feel again. Somehow we believe that only in this way can we protect ourselves from being hurt again.

However, life is not like what we think it is, it can be harsh at times. So we need to accept reality and respond to it positively. Yes, we coil and put a wall if only to mourn and nurse our wounds, but soon enough we need to open up if we are to live.

We are stubborn at times, so we need to be broken so we can feel and live again.

Sometimes it has to be broken to be open. A broken heart is an open heart. How can someone enter if it is not open?
