Healing Broken Hearts and Emily Dickinson

Thanks Emily . . . you words still do these things long after you’ve gone to be with Jesus:

If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain.
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.

- Emily Dickinson -
