Today's challenge was to color in the above picture of the world, tear it out, rip it up into pieces and tape it back together. Then after this experience I wrote thoughts to these questions:
How is this "world" not the same as it was, even though it is back in one piece? You can see the effects of it being ripped and broken. The tape I used makes it look shiner in a photo.
How is our world broken? There is so much brokenness in our world because of sin. Broken families, broken marriages...broken friendships...broken governments...broken priorites...broken teens...broken children...broken young adults...broken adults. Brokenness effects all of us, but it's not God's fault...it's ours.
How can it be restored? The good news is God wants to restore us and make us new! God's grace and love is stronger than any brokenness that we may find or experience! Jesus was broken on the cross for the sins of the world. He raised to new life making a way for us to have new life in Him. Then he empowers us to be a part of healing the brokenness in our world. This is true hope!
How might God want to heal your brokenness and empower you to be an agent of healing in the world?
Till Tommorrow...Tom
