There is actually a condition known as broken-heart syndrome, a temporary condition triggered by the death or loss of a loved one. The main symptom is sudden chest pain that mimics a heart attack. It’s true that grief takes its toll on our physical and emotional health. Yet when we are attacked by heartache, our Great Physician is always available — even in the middle of the night, when the stab of sorrow seems most acute. Have you lost someone special? Remember that God specializes in broken hearts.
