Broken hearts

No, not mine. My heart is fine. But one of my kids has just broken up and now has a hurting heart. I guess that makes it unanimous: all three kids have now had an official broken heart from a failed romance. Broken hearts hurt, I know that. But they have value too. They are a time to learn about oneself and about others. Lord, help my kids to trust you, to turn to you when they hurt. Help them not to lose hope in your care for them, nor lose hope that you will one day bring them into happy marriages.
