(June 11, 2014)
We talk about heartbreak frequently in our modern society, but we use the word carelessly. It was a heartbreaking loss. It was a heartbreaking reversal. It is a heartbreaking financial situation. To a certain extent, that is a good thing – we are to mourn with those who mourn – but in a different light it just again shows our unwillingness to understand how blessed and privileged we are.
Heartbreaking is a people who knew the Lord turning against Him. Heartbreaking is those same people being cut down in open rebellion against God. Heartbreaking is the people sorrowing, but not repenting (a topic worthy of an extensive discussion in and of itself). We don’t often experience heartbreak at the things that should break our hearts, and the things which do break our hearts are often trivial and meaningless.
