To be candid, heartbreak hurts. It stinks. It pains to the inner mind particularly when you knew for a fact that you dot all the ‘i’s and crossed all the ‘t’s in a biblical way yet you are being ‘punished’ for love.

I said it again it isn’t palatable. I knew what it implies to be heartbroken but you can deal with the agony triumphantly.

In addition to that, heartbreak is inevitable. As long as a human will be your father, mother, kid, spouse, boss, etc, you got to respect their fallibilities.

Now deal with heartbreak like these:

1.CRY.

Even our Lord Jesus Christ was heartbroken at His people’ unbeliefs and wept. Cry! You have not sinned. Talk to people about your pains. Crying relieves pain.

2. THANK GOD.

It was a human being that broke your heart, not Yahweh, so praise ummhangeable Promise Keeper.

Two, if it is a romantic breakup, dance away! There are many saves that God is doing for us that we have no inkling about. Maybe you are saved from a potentially damaging relationship and lastly, the bible said, ‘in everything, give thanks.’

3. FORGIVE AND TAKE THE FIRST STEP OF RECONCILIATION.

Yeah! You didn’t misread me! You have to forgive your heartbreaker whether the person realises his/her mistakes or not, after all, we have done worse for Jesus and He forgave us.

Don’t just forgive, take the first step of reconciliation by calling, emailing, DMing the offender to normalise the relationship after all Christ didn’t wait for us to repent before dying for us.

You say, ‘it is not easy and unfair.’ who said it will be? But that is Christ’s teaching and Christ Himself is the one that will grace to do His will. Remember, blessed are the peacemakers.

4. GO OUT.

After doing the stuff above. Stop blaming yourself.

Stop pity party.

Go and pursue your objectives, goals and aspiration.

Go out, network and make new friends. It is your season of love.

5. LOVE AGAIN.

There is an adage in the Yoruba, loosely translated as, ‘if a car hits you, it is still a car that will carry you to hospital.’ Love again and love with Queen Esther’s saying in your mind that, ‘if I perish [again], I perish.’ 

It is one human that broke your heart, it’s still another human being that you will marry.

6. DON’T PUNISH OTHERS.

It is your ex that dumped you, not all girls, so don’t punish your next, sir.

It is that boy that is unserious not all boys.

You were swindled by one man not all.

So let’s be guided.

7. GUARD YOUR HEART. 

Lastly, guard the remaining part of your heart with love, joy and soundness and let it spring out of life.

MAY YOU HEAL.
