31 Days of Being Broken Open - Harmony Harkema

31 Days of Being Broken Open

Throughout this lovely month of October, my favorite of all months, I’m going to participate in The Nester’s Write 31 Days challenge. For my topic, I’m choosing Being Broken Open.

Being Broken Open is about how God works on us, like oysters who need to be cracked so that the good within can be reached, so that our hearts expand and we are able to grow beyond ourselves (I talked a little bit about my oyster vision here). Being broken open means our capacity to love, to have compassion, becomes greater. Sometimes the process of being broken open is painful – we end up chipped and scarred and cracked. But always – always – it’s worth it.

I’m looking forward to finally getting back together with all of you for a little while each day. I’ll try to keep the majority of my posts on the short side, but there are some deeper stories that are just screaming to get of me, too, so I’m sure there will be some longer reads, too.

I’ll be updating this page every day with the latest post information, so that you can simply just come here to navigate if you want.
