Why Broken is Best

Your child with his broken toy, your teenager with her broken heart--both come to you for help.

Your heart melts with their sadness and you "move heaven and earth" to fix what is broken.

There will always be something broken in our lives.

In broken, we pause and ask for help.

In broken, we find we are not self-sustaining.

In broken, God's heart melts with our sadness.

In broken, God literally moves heaven and earth to fix it His way.

Someday, broken will no longer exist. Why?

Because God promises, in 2 Peter 3:13, to permanently move heaven and earth and replace it with that which will never be broken again.
We'll be ready...for the promised new heavens and the promised new earth, all landscaped with righteousness.
Our broken radiates God's best.

Lord, help me carry my brokenness to You, trusting Your best will follow.
