After sustaining a sports injury, a friend of mine once shared that for healing to occur, the doctor diagnosed that the injured limb would have to first be broken in order for re-alignment and healing to take place. There are some things within our lives that must first be broken before we are able to experience healing. Many times the pain of brokenness is the only way life has of getting our attention long enough to inspire us toward making positive, life-long changes.
We often live our lives constantly in search of a non-existant state of utopia only to be disappointed time and time again when the challenges of life begin to test our faith. It is time that we learn how to expect and embrace the adversities of life. Many desire to have the marriages that last sixty years, the booming business, the well-disciplined children, financial security, the power of forgiveness, the love of having a close knit family, and most importantly a higher level of spiritual growth and peace; however, only those who are willing to go through the trials, are able to experience the triumph. At some point we must make up in our minds that we are either going to give up or trust God enough to press our way onward and forward. Giving up should never be an option, there are too many people depending on you, and need to see your faith in action!!!! This week I encouraged you to heal through the pain of your brokenness. Make-up in your mind that your state of brokenness is only temporary and take the necessary steps needed to guide you to a place of healing and restoration. Most of all celebrate the healing that is on the way!!! Have a great week!!
