Double Trouble (Wounded Hearts)

WILLIAM W. HEMMANS III · Thursday, January 12th 2006 at 3:58PM · 254 views
Author David Wilkerson in the book titled "Have You Felt Like Giving Up Lately":

People seldom get hurt just once. Most who hurt can show you other wounds also. Pain is layered over pain. A broken heart is usually a tender, fragile one. It is easily broken because it is not protected by a hard shell. Tenderness is mistaken for vulnerability, by the hard-shelled heart. Quietness is misjudged as a weakness. A total giving of oneself to another is mistaken as coming on too strong. The heart that is not afraid to admit its need of love is misjudged as being too s*xually oriented.
It follows then that a tender heart which reaches for love and understanding is often the easiest to break. Hearts that are open and trusting are usually the ones that are wounded the most. This world is filled with men and women who have rejected the love offered to them from a heart that is gentle and tender. Those strong, hard-shelled hearts that trust no one, hearts that give so little, hearts that demand love be constantly proved, hearts that are always calculating, hearts that are always manipulating and self-serving, hearts that are afraid to risk are the ones that seldom get broken. They don't get wounded, because there is nothing to wound. They are too proud and self-centered to allow anyone else to make them suffer in any way. They go about breaking other hearts and trampling on the fragile souls who touch their lives, simply because they are THICK AND DULL AT HEART THEMSELVES, AND THEY THINK EVERYONE SHOULD BE JUST AS THEY ARE. The hard hearts don't like tears. They hate commitment. They feel smothered when asked to share from their won hearts.

*I thought I would quote from a book. This is so the 1 or 2 that dissent with me, but will shout hallelujah(to someone else saying it), to what I have said already but because my name does not have $$$$$$$$$ behind it yet or as they think...........
"Rhichard Pryor" Blog #2 and "Gossip" Blog coming next :-)
Why do I persist? I promised people I would do a Gossip blog and something I know about gossips as well as some others.

A hint though, according to the strength of a demon, they never go away, they are cowards that hide under rocks and chatter like snakes until re-emerging. If You look at Jesus and any Biblical mentioned person, to the Israelite nation... Enemies always abounded against truth.
By the way Busybodies and Gossips are actually atheists and agnostics...
Think about it...

The bright intellectual minds I have encountered here, I know there are some that can define or state what I am saying here.
Think about it...
I know quite a few people have seen my comments that Gossipers and Busybodies are the most dangerous people on earth...
Everyone is familiar with a gossip or has been affected by one.

Until we meet again, just my 2cents worth.

These are the people who are afraid to take that risk to love, their hearts may be more fragile than the ones that give easily. They also need a relationship with God to understand. Eventually God will touch them and probaly bring some people that they hurt to reconcile (if they have a concious and it is apart of God's will).

Just give them time. They will be alright. God's got them even though they don't have GOd.
