LOL. Nice pre-empt, T. I haven't heard this before so now I'm curious as it sounds really lovely. Just what I need right now, I think.

I'm glad that things better for you lately.

Psalms 34:18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.

Could that be it?

You've probably already found this one:

"The first step in spiritual life is to have compassion. A person who is kind and loving never needs to go searching for God. God rushes toward any heart that beats with compassion-it is God's favorite place."
Amma (Mata Amritanandamayi Devi)

It doesn't say anything about being broken, though, just compassionate.

No, I hadnt! Thanks teasel. It's similar to what was said and I like it. I was reading this link and suddenly remembered I heard the "quote" or words come from a Christian radio talk show host in the car a few weeks back. Don't normally listen to them, but i was getting bored with what was on the music stations and this guy had some interesting things to say. And that's why I can't find it on the net.
