If through a broken heart God can bring His purposes to pass in the
world, then thank Him for breaking your heart.
Jesus according to medical examination died of a broken heart.
If He did
not then we would not be brother and sister in the family of God.
When our heart is broken we are in no position to demand or exercise our
own desires but only those of others.
A heart broken before God is then
ready for the master to use for his purpose.
He does repair the broken heart
first.Psalm 126:5 says "They that sew in tears shall reap in joy" refer also
to 2 Samuel 15:30, 2 Kings 20:5, Jerimiah 31:9 and
Jeremiah 31:13 "Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance both young men
and old men together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will
comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow"
God will turn your situations around and make us to laugh again.
In the
turning we move closer to the plan He has for our life. His dealings are
not done with a slack hand but line upon line and precept upon precept we
learn and change....and yes sometimes the roots of the trees must be blown
out with dynamite and then when all is said and done we end up just like
Isaiah 61:3 "To appoint unto them that mourn in zion,to give unto them
beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for
the spirit of heaviness: that they might be called trees of righteousness
the planting of the Lord, that He might be glorified"
The Lord would have us be like Jeremiah 17:8 "For he shall be as a tree
planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and
shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green, and shall not
be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit"
The breaking up of hard fallow ground in preparation for planting is no easy
process and most unpleasant for the ground (heart) at the time but
eventually the great yielding of fruit (spiritual fruit) shall be abundant
for the husbandman (God)
So yes a broken heart can glorify God.
God bless and dispise not the shaping of the Lord
