Broken

Bit of a negative title, especially after yesterday, but it's SO important for us to understand this about ourselves! Who I am without God is completely broken and unable to fix myself. My brokenness is called sin. Sin separates me from a holy God, and anything that's separated from God is broken and dies. Adam & Eve sinned in the Garden and their sinful nature has been passed on to every generation since. Every person that has ever lived since (except for Jesus), has been born as a sinner. I have to know this about myself because if I realise that I'm broken without God, then I will realise that I am in need of God! No matter how hard I try, I can't fix life's biggest problem myself. I am a sinner... I am broken... I need a Saviour! And this is where it gets really good: Jesus came to save us from our sins, bring us back to God and literally fix our brokenness. Being aware of my brokenness actually reveals the strength of God's love for me at a whole new level. He loved me even at my worst. As we read yesterday - "While we were still sinners - Christ died for us." Today as you read these scriptures, don't think about your past failing, but realise & be reminded of how much you need God & put your faith in the Saviour again!
