blessings in brokenness

sharing with you some highlights & reflections of the preaching.. Read on and be blessed…
” like a jar when broken , it exposed what is inside “ – we as human, are so vulnerable. When we are hurt, in pain, in distress and are broken hearted, what is inside us can be seen by God., our weaknesses, struggles and every little thing which we try to keep inside. God allows brokenness for us to open up our hearts, to humble ourselves before Him and acknowledge that only God can heal our broken heart. He wants us to bring our brokenness to Him.
” like a jar when broken , it is being crushed to make a new jar ” – You can never apply an adhesive to a broken jar to make it whole again., just like the jar, God allows us to be crushed further even after we are being badly broken. He allows us to be crushed when He sees that there are still parts of us that remain unbroken., when He sees that we still have this reservations in our hearts, when we remain stubborn, when we keep on pretending that we can make it on our own. He wants us to be crushed so He can make us new again., for Him to give us a renewed heart.
“brokenness can lead to wholeness, only if we trust our hearts and lives to God” …
Psalm 147:3
for He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
