Nothing revolutionary to state, but it seems the guy has been trying to live on his own, by his own strength. He has been going through life, trying to do things his own way, and nothing is working. Or everything seems to be great on the outside, but he is empty. Anyhow, the guy is at the end of his rope. Which is where the falling into God's arms comes in. The man can no longer go on by his own strength, trying to live his own way. It is in this broken state that God can start to mold and use this man.
