Love Poem from Jesus

 A beautiful poem I heard over the radio many many years ago! I pray every soul that hears this would feel God's great love for them and realize that they are more loved than they could ever imagine!

"Brokenness and the Road to Healing"

Some time has passed to where I can now talk about the last life altering events that have happened. Last December, just a week before Christmas, my husband, friend and I were in a major car accident. We decided to get our Christmas shopping done that night since we both were busy with our work schedules. A close and dear friend of ours decided to come along with us.
On our way home while driving through a canyon, we were hit by a drunk driver from behind, going over 100mph. Totaling our car, and all 3 of us sustained injuries. I won't go into their details due to privacy. I broke 3 bones in my lower back, tailbone, nerve & muscle damage amongst other things. I rode in one ambulance , my husband in the other. That was one of the scariest feelings, not being with my husband and not knowing the extent of his injuries. I remember seeing his face hours later after the accident and I just began to cry, thanking God for saving each and everyone of us that night. It was a miracle that any of us survived.

That night has changed my world in so many ways. I'm very physically limited to what I can do now, simple cleaning and cooking (chores I took for granted) are now things I can't do. I get around with my crutches. Having to rely and depend on others for simple things. Laying in bed at my house alone while my husband works has become more of a home arrest. Living over 1,500 miles from family and friends has been very lonely. I don't care how old you are, when you go through something this devastating all you want are your loved ones close, especially your mom and dad. Luckily we have a great church family, and workplace family, who have shown us support and love.

For those of you who know me, you know I'm a very bubbly person, always happy, in fact i was even given the nickname bubbling Brooke. But now, after this accident, with the loss of my physical capabilities and job, i battle depression. I keep reminding myself that this is only a season. I don't know what the future holds, or what kind of permanent damage there is, but I'm praying and believing there will be no lasting damage and that the Lord would speed my healing. My heart goes out to those who are physically disabled. I don't understand why things happen to people, but I know there's a reason, a specific purpose in it for everyone. God has been teaching me a lot. Most of that He is ALL I need. I learned this while He was ALL I had. One thing that rings true throughout my whole life, is that I have never truly been alone. He has been there with me all along. He NEVER leaves me. God is TRULY and ALWAYS will be my first TRUE LOVE. I thank Him for giving me the GRACE and the STRENGTH to get through my physical and emotional pain every day. I don't understand why God chooses to love me, but I'm so glad He does.
