O beautiful broken one.  I hold you and gaze at the glow of My glory that I see emanating from the seed of hope within you. This treasure within you is to be seen.  My will for you is Broken Free.  Be still and know. You work so diligently to redo the things I have undone in you. You restore and repair and rebuild, so that you may remain whole and unbroken but this is not yet My Way. My Way is Broken Free. Don’t despise your brokenness. I want you to begin to see the beauty of it instead and to know that in brokenness the seed of hope within you has room to grow.

2 Corinthians 4:6,7 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of God’s glory in the face of Jesus Christ. Now we have this treasure in clay jars, so that this extraordinary power may be from God and not us.

1 Corinthians 15:13 (ceb) It’s necessary for this rotting body to be clothed with what can’t decay, and for the body that is dying to be clothed in what can’t die.

2 Corinthians 4:16 Therefore we do not give up. Even though our outer person is being destroyed, our inner person is being renewed day by day.
