There is a line from one of the newer hymns that has been haunting me all day. The hymn 鈥� 鈥楥ome Touch Our Hearts鈥� words and music by Gordon Light, 2002, includes a line, 鈥楥ome touch our hearts that we may know compassion鈥�. Somewhere during the day, the words switched to 鈥榗ome touch my heart鈥�. The words became more powerful. My thoughts were possibly influenced by the writings of Ann Voskamp, 鈥楾he Broken Way鈥�. One of her chapter thoughts is 鈥榤aybe wholeness is embracing brokenness as part of your life鈥�.
