“God does not abandon broken hearts—He builds altars from their shattered pieces
– Bishop W. F. Houston Jr., Theological Educator & Spiritual Inspirationalist ✝️

🔑 Divine Revelation (KJV Scripture) 📖
“He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.” — Psalm 147:3 (KJV)

💡 Our Philosophical Term For Today

Katharsis (κάθαρσις – Greek) 🏛️
Meaning: Emotional and spiritual purification through grief and release.

This ancient Greek concept reminds us that healing often comes through weeping, not around it. Grief can be sacred ground when surrendered to God.

🤔 A dear friend once told me after losing her husband: “I wake up and half the bed feels like a grave.” But over time, she discovered that the same space where she once cried herself to sleep became a sacred meeting place with God.

Grief doesn’t get easier, it gets redeemed when we give it to the One who bore sorrow on our behalf. Even Jesus wept (John 11:35), and in doing so, He sanctified our tears.

🌈 Beloved,
If you’re walking through a season of grief, whether from death, divorce, disappointment, or distance I want you to know this: God sees you. God hears your groans. And most importantly, God binds up broken hearts with threads of eternal hope.

You don’t have to perform healing, just permit it.
Let grief have its voice. Let grace do the rest.  Amen? 💧✝️ 💙 😊

🙏🏿 Let Us Go Into The Throne Room of Grace and Mercy: “

Heavenly Father 👑,
Today, we lift every soul carrying a silent ache. For every widow, every grieving parent, every person holding a pillow soaked in tears—be their comforter. Bind wounds we don’t have words for. Restore joy without making us forget the love we’ve lost. Make the pain purposeful. Make the night pass. Give us hope that rises, not just survives.
In Jesus’ mighty name, To God Be The Glory. 🙏🏿

🚶🏾‍♀️ Walking with Healing, I’m Bishop W. F. Houston Jr., Theological Educator & Spiritual Inspirationalist. May your heart begin to feel the warmth of restoration again.
