One day I dug a hole and put my hurt inside.

I thought that I could just forget, I'd put it there to hide.

But that little hurt began to grow.

I covered it everyday.

I couldn't leave it and go on, it seemed the price I had to pay.

My joy was gone, my heart was sad.

Pain was all I knew.

My wounded soul enveloped me.

Loving seemed too hard to do.

One day, while standing in my hole.

I cried to God above.

And said, "If You are really there--they say You are a God of LOVE!"

And just like that--He was right there and put his arms around me.

He wiped my tears, His hurting child. There was no safer place to be.

I told Him all about my hurt. I opened up my heart. He listened to each and every word, to every sordid part.

I dug down deep and got my hurt. I brushed the dirt away. And placed it in the Master's hand and healing came that day.

He took the blackness of my SOUL and set my spirit FREE! Something beautiful began to grow where the hurt use to be.

And when I look what has grown, out of my tears and pain. I remember everyday to give my hurts to Him. And never bury them again.

Note: This is how I felt when my son died, immediately, I had another baby who was born healthy, through the grace of God. Hence the title. Healed and Whole for that is what I had to do in order to open up my heart again.

Thank you. MaryAnn
