It's that place of brokenness that we all dread.
When you hit the dead end.
When you fall to the cold ground.
When you wake up someone unfamiliar.
When your whole world falls apart.
But brokenness is beautiful. Because how can we be healed if we're not broken?
How can we be found if we're not lost?
Brokenness is beautiful, because that's when God puts you back together.
He will allow us to be broken, so He can show His almighty love by picking up the pieces.
He will pick up the pieces and put us back together as a new creation.
We should want to be broken. We should want to be weak. We should want to be anything other than unbreakable.
Because in our brokenness and weakness, God's healing and strength is radiantly revealed.
He will not waste the pain. He will remedy and heal until you know that it's only because of His great love, only by His abundant grace, and all for His glory.
Blessed are the lost, for they will be found.
And blessed are the broken, for they will be healed. Matthew 5 (paraphrased by Morgan).
Brokenness is beautiful, because it leads to surrender.
Surrender is beautiful because it leads to healing.
And healing, because it leads to praise.
Who would have thought that what we think to be our greatest victory turns out to be our greatest uncertainty/defeat. If God told us exactly how he planned to mold us we would undoubtedly resist, we always tend to jump into our greatest failures head first, arms open. Mystery is beautiful.
