Beautifully Broken: A 20 Day Journey of Healing From the Unthinkableنموونە

I've done this. And maybe you have, too.

I've let the injustice, the betrayal, the pain of the rejection fill me up.

It took over parts of me not up for grabs.

I read a saying many years ago: "If we don't heal what's broken, we will bleed on people who didn't hurt us."

I'm not sure what genius person said this, but how true are these words?
When our pain runs the show, we bleed on the innocents in our lives.

Our kids. Our friends. Our colleagues. Those we worship with and the people we serve.

But the trauma and the wrongdoings against us never trump what Jesus did.

They aren't more. We must keep in perspective what has been done for us.

We can hurt and heal at the same time. We can honour our pain and what's happened to us while simultaneously honouring the God of the storm.

The Jesus of the cross.

The One Who conquered the grave.

The One Who still—even right now—has His hands on every single thing.

Including your story and all you're going through.

Let's give Him the room in us that He deserves. His presence helps keep things in perspective.
