Hey all,
Have you ever been broken? If you are an adult then I know the answer.
Yes.
We all have a story......and unfortunately the majority have some brokenness in it. For some of us.....it has been really bad. Really broken. For some.....it was nearly unbearable. It is a wonder how we made it through.
But check this out.
If we allow it.....God will take our brokenness and turn it into a ministry.
Let me say it again.....IF we allow HIM.......GOD will take our Brokenness from our Life and turn it into a Ministry. He will allow our story to help others. It can actually be HIS gift to us to give to someone else who needs it.
Think about it.....how many times have you been talking to someone and realize that what they are going through is similar to your own story? You have been right where they are. You understand it. You have experienced it. You can feel what they are feeling. Your heart aches for them.
And because you have been there.....you can speak into their heart. Your words can help them. You understand. You can give them hope. You have been through it. You can give them hope that it gets better. You can tell them to not give up (and really mean it!).
In other words, you can "minister" to them.
Nothing in our life is an accident. We all have a story. We all have wonderful parts and we all have broken parts. God uses both to help others.........but I truly believe that HE will use our brokenness to minister to others who are going through the same thing. The hardest part of our story can truly help someone in the hardest part of theirs. God will bring people in our path to "minister" to if we are available. We have to understand that our Brokenness may not be about us........
But rather a gift for someone else.
Strength and Honor,
