BROKEN PLACES

Are you in the depths of something today? Maybe it’s someone you're close to? A diagnosis? A broken relationship? A loss?

Sooner or later we all face brokenness, loss, and despair. For some it is an unexpected surprise; for some, seemingly a way of life. Whoever and whatever it may be, there is nothing so overwhelming as the feeling of hopelessness, loneliness, and abandonment we can experience in those times.

But we have this HOPE: God is with us. More than we can even understand, He is aware and in us in the pain. We can’t see or understand all that He does, but we can rely on His promise that He is with us. And it’s in those broken places His love and strength shines the brightest… if we trust Him to.

Are you or is someone you’re close to living in brokenness today? Reflect and pray as you read Psalm 6 today.

BROKEN PLACES

I trust you to heal
I trust you to save
So I’ll trust you enough
To get out of the way
To come where I am
To silence my doubt
So I’ll forfeit my plans
And let yours play out

You are strong
In the broken places
I’m carried in your arms
You are strong
In the broken places
There’s healing in these scars

So I’ll keep coming back
To what you said first
Beyond what I see
Beyond how it hurts
Whatever you ask, God
No matter how hard
The place of my breaking
Is right where you are

You redeem
You restore
You make things better than before
You reconcile
You resurrect
You speak life over death
