So how do we ‘fix’ being broken you may ask. I do not believe that there is a permanent fix for this condition other than the return of Jesus Christ. The heart of Christ will always break for someone until He returns; therefore, my heart should always break for someone.
I fully expect my brokenness to get much worse next year. But I also expect to find beauty in my brokenness when I am feeding orphans. I expect to find beauty when I am singing and praying with orphans. I expect to find beauty when I am sharing God’s love with orphans. And I expect to stay broken for them while I am basking in the beauty of it all.
I believe that I will be broken for many other things next year, but I am not scared about that brokenness. Earlier today I told someone that I was not okay with not being okay. I have since come to the reality that the best place to be is not okay. The moment I become okay is the moment I am not connected to Jesus Christ. The moment I become okay is the moment I have lost contact with the heart and eyes of Jesus. You see, when I am not okay, I see with Jesus eyes and feel with Jesus heart because He sees those hurting and aches for those crying. I am okay with not being okay because it is the only way for me to live! I choose to find beauty in my brokenness.
Are you okay today or are you broken for Christ?
