BROKENNESS!

"My sacrifice to God is a broken spirit"...Psalms 51:17. My friend, God wants to lift you up and that is His desire about you! He wants to lift you up in your studies, in your job, in your business. You may be saying "I have not found blessings in all that I do, everything that I do get hindered..waiting for profit ends in loss..thought you had a good relationship but cheated, expected great things from your children and they have gone astray.. everything I took ended incomplete? There can be loneliness of the rich as well as poor, to the King and to the peasant- there are days when the singer has no song and the musicians has no music- yes, yes, Occasions arise in our life that sadden the most buoyant and dampen the hope of the most hopeful. But my dear remember the promise from our Lord "I am with you always"..that lifts spirit of the sorrowful and encourages the downhearted. Isn't that right? BUT WORLD THAT CELEBRATES SUCCESS DOESN'T SEE THE VALUE IN BROKEN THINGS! But our God brings beauty out of Brokenness. Let me explain to you, can I? For a plant to rise from the soil the seed must be broken. For a baby chick to experience larger life the shell must be broken. Even a thoroughbred horse must be broken; it must learn to respond to the tug and the sound of his master's voice, right? Are you getting what I am telling you. In another words "Brokenness is the work of God by which He strips us of self-sufficiency and pride so that the character of Christ may shine through us". So my dear, ENDURE IT, GO THROUGH IT, PRAISE GOD THROUGH IT--HE IS TAKING YOU SOMEWHERE IN YOUR LIFE! Y'ALL HEAR ME??
