What do you do when you're misrepresented, insulted, or spoken about unfairly? Jesus calls moments like these blessed—not because they feel good, but because they form us. Persecution isn't a sign that something has gone wrong; it's often proof that God is doing something right.
In this final week of our Good News for Broken Hearts series, Alan helps us see that every assignment attracts adversaries as we sit under the text.
Bitterness shrinks the heart. Love enlarges it. When we pray instead of react, when we stay patient instead of demanding, God uses what hurts to shape what lasts. Our pain can either harden us or become holy ground—an invitation to deeper purpose.
Jesus calls us salt and light—people who don't hide, don't withdraw, and don't let darkness define them. Your pain isn't pointless; it's potential. Don't waste it. The harvest on the other side of tears is real.
If you've ever wondered how to keep your heart soft when life goes below the belt, this message is for you. God doesn't just heal broken hearts—He enlarges them.
