Broken

I was sitting here, after a perfectly lousy day at work, feeling sorry for myself, when I read this post from Kat Coble, who is living outside herself — and grieving for a seriously ill companion — even while I’m sitting here feeling selfish:

The Bible tells us over and again that God was grief-stricken when sin entered the world. He loved mankind fiercely and terribly and that rot of sin just leaked in and stole his companions from him. They were gone–disappeared in the sludge of dark lonely evil. I am arrogant when I say that today I understand how God’s heart was so bitterly broken.
