Moving From Brokenness to PurposeSample
Many people today lack the answers they need about how to address the problems in their lives. What’s more, they lack the assurance of faith- that what seems broken in their lives, homes, and nation could ever be restored. Perhaps it’s a broken marriage. Maybe a dead-end career. It might be a miserable mentality. Whatever has caused so many Christians to lie limp on the ground seems to have sucked away hope for a solution as well.
If that’s you, remember that it’s hard to fix a problem when you don’t know, or choose to ignore the cause. Hope leaves when we focus on the symptoms and not on the sins that brought the symptoms about. Whenever you are looking for a cure, you must address the cause. Far too many laymen, pastors, and politicians are focusing on symptoms rather than dealing with the systemic roots that have caused the decay. If we are ever to get our lives, homes, churches, and nation right, we have to address the spiritual causes beneath the brokenness we are experiencing.
Is there an area in your life where you have kept yourself from identifying the cause of the troubles you face, which has kept you from either healing it or overcoming it?
We hope this plan encouraged you. For more information about the ministries of Dr. Tony Evans, click here.
