“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; He rescues those whose spirits are crushed.”
Psalm 34:18 (NLT)
Introduction to When the Heart Breaks Devotional Series
Heartbreak is one of life’s most profound and painful experiences. It’s heavy. Real heavy. Whether it’s from loss, betrayal, or dreams that just didn’t pan out, it hits deep—and sometimes it feels like nobody really gets it.
When the Heart Breaks isn’t about pretending you’re okay or rushing you to “move on.” It’s about keeping it real—with your pain, your tears, your questions—and bringing it all straight to Jesus. Because He’s been there. He’s the one who wept at the tomb, who knows what it means to hurt.
This series is made for the hard days—the days when healing feels slow, and hope feels far away. Each devotion will help you sit with your brokenness, lean on God’s truth, and take small steps toward peace. No pressure. No judgment. Just grace and real talk.
If your heart’s been cracked open, you’re not alone. Jesus is right there with you—walking every step, holding you close, and lighting a way through the darkness. Let’s walk it out together.
An Invitation to Heal, Reflect, and Rest
Take your time. Healing isn’t a race, and these devotions aren’t homework. Read at your own pace—one day, one devotion, or whenever your heart needs it.
Be honest with God. Bring your real feelings—pain, anger, confusion, or hope—to Him. There’s no “right” way to feel or pray here.
Pause and reflect. Each devotion includes moments to think, pray, or journal. Don’t rush past these—they’re your chance to listen, process, and create a clear channel to hear from God.
Lean on Scripture. The Bible verses shared aren’t just words; they’re lifelines. Read them slowly, let them sink in, and ask God to speak through them.
Reach out if you need to. If you feel stuck or overwhelmed, find someone you trust—a friend, a pastor, or a counselor—to walk alongside you. Healing sometimes needs community.
