We are all broken beings, walking as pieces of ourselves.
Pieces that need to be pieced together again.
Things fall apart, people fall apart.
Broken trust, broken hearts, broken desires
Are you broken today?
Pieces that need to be pieced together again.
Our life is full of brokenness - broken relationships, broken promises, broken expectations. How can we live with that brokenness without becoming bitter and resentful except by returning again and again to God's faithful presence in our lives.
Henri NouwenPieces that need mending. Serious stitching.
Things fall apart, people fall apart.
Broken trust, broken hearts, broken desires
Are you broken today?
... Christ saw that men took life painfully. To some it was a weariness, to others failure, to many a tragedy, to all a struggle and a pain. How to carry this burden of life had been the whole world's problem. And here is Christ's solution: "Carry it as I do. Take life as I take it. Look at it from my point of view. Interpret it upon my principles. Take my yoke and learn of me, and you will find it easy. For my yoke is easy, sits right upon the shoulders, and therefore my burden is light.
... Henry Drummond (1851-1897), Pax Vobiscum
