a husband who has left you....
a difficult child...
a co-worker who just irritates you...
a car that needs repairs you cannot afford....
a friend who betrayed you....
So many situations like this.. and so many more...
we have all had our lives shattered
into pieces...
We see the pieces laying on the floor...
and all we can do is cry....
because we will never be the same again....
how will we put the pieces back together again??
We take a moment and get down on our knees..
we cry out to our God...
we tell him that we are broken and beyond repair...
we need his grace...
we need his love.
We need him to just shelter us from life.
He picks us up... he brushes us off...
he picks up the broken pieces and says
"Nothing is impossible for me"
Will things ever be the same again? No... not the same...
but those broken pieces that we thought were useless and ugly,,
God has taken those and created something new...
something beautiful from the rubble...
often something better than what we started with...
What was once plain and beautiful... is now
a beautiful mosaic...
all the broken pieces...
reworked to be something new and beautiful.
God is bigger than our broken pieces.
