It's Okay to Not Be Okay
By His wounds we are healed. Isaiah 53:5 NIV
We think that we have to take what's broken and make it perfect again. God thinks in an entirely different way. He took what was perfect (His Son) and through His brokenness brought us healing.
Because of this, our brokenness can bring healing to others too. And in the process, it can also heal us. You are loved just as you are - brokenness and all.
A Different Kind of Hope
Hope is a Journey
Suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. Romans 5:3-4 NIV
It seems hope should be first on the list. But instead it's the culmination of our hearts taking a thousand little steps of faith. Real hope meets us where we expect it least and need it most. So if life seems hard right now and you wonder how much longer you can go on, take heart...hope is already on the way.
