Dear Someone: If you allow God's love to soothe your soul, your wounded feelings will invite deeper healing.

A prayer for healing, comfort and strength when your feelings have been hurt and you're trying to find solace and reassurance in God's unfailing love.

Dear, Dear Someone, _

The human heart is a fragile and precious thing, capable of experiencing the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. When we open ourselves up to love and connection, we also open ourselves up to the possibility of hurt and disappointment. And when our feelings are wounded, when our hearts are bruised and battered, it can feel like the very foundation of our being has been shaken.

The pain of hurt feelings can take many forms - the sting of rejection, the ache of betrayal, the crushing weight of criticism, the loneliness of being misunderstood or unappreciated. It can leave us feeling vulnerable and exposed, wondering if we will ever be able to trust again, if we will ever feel whole and worthy and loved.
