Love again by stella ashworth
When a relationship comes to an end, it’s important to allow yourself the time and space to heal. Acknowledge what went wrong, not to dwell in regret, but to grow in understanding.
Find the place within you where peace and contentment in solitude can be restored. There is no need to rush this process—healing is not a race but a journey. Hand over your brokenness to God, trusting that He will mend the pieces in His perfect timing.
Don't suppress your pain or seek distractions in new relationships, hoping they will fill the emptiness. True wholeness comes not from avoiding the hurt but from facing it, surrendering it, and allowing God to do His transformative work in you.
In His hands, even the deepest wounds can become a source of strength, and in His love, you will find healing.
Too often, we conceal our pain when we experience hurt or betrayal, but this is not what God desires for us. He calls us to confront our pain, to grow through it, and ultimately to overcome it. Being hurt does not make you a victim; however, remaining in that pain without seeking healing can hold you back.
When we recognize the transformative power found in Christ, we learn to surrender our burdens to Him, praying, “Lord, I cannot do this without You. I need Your strength.”
Faith is the key that sets the path toward restoration in motion. Hurt is an inevitable part of life, but healing is always within reach. Do not fear your pain—acknowledge it. Do not avoid your pain—work through it. And most importantly, do not let pride prevent you from laying it at the foot of the Cross.
My dear friends in Christ, God's desire for us is not to have hearts hardened by pain, but hearts filled with His love. Even after deep hurt, betrayal, and disappointment, He calls us to be courageous—to love again. It is not easy to open our hearts after they have been broken, but God is our healer. He mends what is shattered and strengthens what is weak.
In His love, we find the courage to trust again, to extend grace, and to walk forward with hope. Do not let past wounds define your future. Let God’s love restore you, soften your heart, and remind you that love is always worth the risk.
You are not alone—He is with you, guiding you toward a love that reflects His own.
