Out of a Broken Heart…

by Robin on July 14, 2010

I was all set to show you our progress in the huge (and getting bigger) project we’re doing …

I had pictures and a little story…

But I woke this morning with a heavy heart and my precious friend, Sara, (Gitzen Girl) on my mind.  She lost her dad very suddenly a few days ago. The wake is today.Sara-FranklI’ve introduced you to Sara before, but in case you haven’t met her yet, Sara is a beautiful young woman who is home-bound due to a chronic disease called Spondylitis.

Sara won’t be able to attend her father’s wake.

I went to her website to leave a prayer…I was so taken back by what Sara posted today…

Out of her broken heart comes beauty. And profound truth.

Please take a moment to visit Sara, you will leave with a treasure.

And take a moment to say a prayer for her and her family today…

Love to you my friends.

~Gitzen Girl~

Thank you, Robin. I’ve been thinking/praying for her–wondering if she could attend. Such beauty in pain.

Thanks Robin! This was touching and I am subscribing to Sara. God’s perfect timing as I needed to read first thing. Strangely enough but today was the first day I have ever planned to go into a morning with a specific verse in mind to look for an affirmation. Today’s was Matt 5:4 about blessing, mourning and comfort. I found a blessing in you and Sara today that drew me to Him, where I find comfort! Thanks my friend…

Hey Robin,

I just felt the need to tell you that I truly love you and am so proud of the woman that you are – you are pursuing your dreams, your passions, loving those around you. I am honored to have you as a friend. Hey – why don’t you come to Texas for a sabbatical – I have a beautiful home – I would love to have you…..
