I can't help but borrow them for my own!
"Shattered dreams open the doors to better dreams ... shattered dreams destroy false expectations, such as the "victorious" Christian life with no real struggle or failure. They help us discover true hope. We need the help of shattered dreams to put us in touch with what we most long for, to create an appetite for better dreams. And living for the better dream generates a new, unfamiliar feeling that we eventually recognize as joy.
Our pain will always have a purpose ... It will stir an appetite for a higher purpose - the better hope of knowing God well enough now to love Him above everything else ... and trusting Him no matter what happens."
