When I felt loved by no one, the Lord met me in the form of His Word. He found me in the thorns that pricked my heart and let my joy spill out. He found me in the rubbish that I thought constituted my entire being. He was and is continuing to be the holy solution to my regrets, anxieties, fears, and doubts by mending my holes and refilling what was once empty. This is the story of the mending and the filling.
