PayanEmotional emptiness does not always become lifelong trauma. The fullness of God overcomes the vulnerability of emptiness. There is real pain, but it doesn’t always end in chronic trauma. Even in the midst of trauma, emptiness, and brokenness, Satan tempts us—to fall, to destroy ourselves, or to self-protect through harmful patterns. Yet God can fill us, heal us, and empower us to overcome. He can sustain the heart through brokenness. There may be trauma, but not necessarily emotional or spiritual destruction—only tears, processing, and the redemption of a painful story.
