Beautiful brokenness.

In a world where the broken are thrown away, our faith says something opposite. The Lord says He is close to the brokenhearted and He saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalms34:18). There is something powerful about being brought to our personal breaking point or crushed. Sure, it’s a character builder but more so it’s where we learn surrender so that our hearts can truly be transformed. “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt so that you would no longer be slaves to the Egyptians; I broke the bars of your yoke and enabled you to walk with heads held high” Leviticus 26:13

True surrender demands we be broken. As I prepare my heart for Jesus throughout the Advent season, my prayer is the same every year. “Lord, break my heart for what breaks Yours, so that I may be truly transformed and wrecked by Your love. Amen.” (Lent prayer too!)

Loving all my broken friends today. What a beautiful time of year to be called to surrender! Xo
