There is a story that a rabbi told his people, that if they studied the Torah, it would place scripture on their hearts. Someone asked,” Why on our hearts and not in them?” The rabbi answered,” Only God can put scripture inside, but reading the sacred text can place it on your heart, and when your heart breaks, the holy words will fall inside.”


I can’t speak for you, but for many that I know, including myself, I came to God in my brokenness, and it was then, that His words became more than letters on a page.
