I hope you've made time to rest in Him, allowing Him to hold you. Now, what lies, doubts, and fears has the devil tried to seed? It's not if but WHEN he does, remember that being broken doesn't disqualify you from being used for God's glory, for living again, and walking out your days in purpose and truth. If anything, you are MORE qualified than ever before because of the brokenness, because of the experience, because of the trial. It's time to look up, let Him in, accept His comfort, and pay it forward. What is He inviting you to rebuild today? One step at a time. Remember Rome wasn't built in a day, but are you willing? You don't have to be perfect, thank the Lord! You don't even have to be ready. You just have to be willing. I can't wait to see the beauty He builds from the brokenness. I can promise you, that if you'll surrender and let Him do the work in you, not only will the result be something more beautiful than you could have ever imagined, but you will also experience His peace that passes all understanding and Joy in the process.

Have you ever felt too far gone, like you're broken beyond repair? We go through real things in life that leave us feeling broken, confused, incapable to be the people God made us to be and the enemy uses those times to capitalize on our pain. The enemy is sneaky, and he uses anything, people, circumstances, words and more to kick us when we are already down. Honestly, everything hurts more when we already have such a gaping wound we are trying to heal, and he knows that! Here me when I say that it's ok to not be okay, but also, don't sit in that forever and never sit in it alone. God is bigger and He wants to carry your burden, heartache and pain. Will you make time to sit with Him in quiet today? Allow Him to give you rest in the midst of the hurt.

Psalm 34:18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are broken hearted

Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Listen, they are gonna call you crazy, when you praise through the storm, worship in the brokeness, find joy in the midst of turmoil, and peace in the ashes because they just don't understand. They don't know Him like we do. That's why we are called to be the salt and LIGHT of the earth. Let's shine together so brightly that they get curious about our crazy and we can introduce them to the source of all our Joy , Peace and Hope ; JESUS, our Lord and Savior.
