I pursue a practice of daily devotions (note: pursuing is not the same as achieving) and when my devos are suitable for public view I often post them on my Feral Pastor Facebook page. A recent post there that touched on the experience of brokenness, and how "cheering people up" is often not the best approach, seemed to get more attention that most. Maybe that's just because simply naming the reality of brokenness has a powerful resonance with a lot of people. Whatever the reason, I thought I'd also post that reflection here in case it was a blessing to others.
