Day 9: From Broken To Whole

Writer: JoniJoni

It is BROKEN,

in such disrepair,

that you BELIEVE there is no way that

it can be

WHOLE again.

BUT then you hear the words

that

JESUS came to heal the BROKENHEARTED

(Luke 4:18).

And that means you!

BUT then you question

if

JESUS HEALING the pain of

your

BROKEN HEART

is going to be enough,

when

THE WHAT

that is causing the

BROKEN is not fixed.

BUT then you hear the words~

"I have come to make all things new" (Revelation 21:5).

And now you wonder if

HE is talking about your HEART.

And of course HE is,

because JESUS is about the HEART~

your HEART

& my HEART

&

everyone else's HEART.

HE takes your ashes and creates BEAUTY.

HE takes despair and exchanges it for JOY.

HE takes bitterness and exchanges it for FORGIVENESS.

HE takes __________ and exchanges it for HIMSELF.

And all it takes is

a SACRIFICE~

YOU.

Yup YOU.

To answer HIS INVITATION

to

COME

and walk through

HIS OPEN DOOR

that takes you

to the NEW,

to where you have never been before,

yet have always dreamed about.

For JESUS takes you from

CLOSED DOORS to OPENED DOORS.

But you have to take the

STEP through

HIS OPEN DOOR

that begins with

A FORGIVENESS

that

OPENS your HEART

to

RECEIVE ALL that JESUS

died to give you.

Does JESUS have to do anything more

than to become

BROKEN on a CROSS,

feeling every nail,

feeling every word used against HIM,

feeling so very human,

as HE pushed out the

words~

"FATHER, forgive them; for they do not know what they're doing"

(Luke 23:34).

JESUS,

THE OPEN DOOR for ALL,

with a FORGIVENESS

that

HEALS the BROKENHEARTED.

Oh the

PEACE of FORGIVENESS

brings a

HEALING that

brings

NEWNESS,

not only to your

HEART

but to your

MIND

and to your SOUL.

So if you ever wonder if

the

HEALING that JESUS does

in your BROKEN spaces and places of your

HEART is ENOUGH,

it isn't,

because it is MORE THAN ENOUGH.

Because when

JESUS gets a hold of your

HEART

with HIS undying LOVE

that

HEALS your BROKEN spaces and places on the INSIDE,

there is a NEWNESS inside of you

that is indescribable,

as it pushes you to take the next step

and the next step

and the next step,

and before you know it

you are walking

BEYOND any BROKENNESS that strives to overcome you,

that is BEYOND your expectations.

Because

every step taken with JESUS

takes you BEYOND what you can see

that is just on the other side of

THE OPEN DOOR.

"Therefore we do not become discouraged

[spiritless, disappointed, or afraid].

Though our outer self is [progressively] wasting away, yet our inner self is being [progressively] renewed day by day. For our momentary, light distress [this passing trouble] is producing for us an eternal weight of glory [a fullness] beyond all measure [surpassing all comparisons, a transcendent splendor and an endless blessedness]!

So we look not at the things which are seen,

but at the things which are unseen;

for the things which are visible are temporal

[just brief and fleeting], but the things which are invisible

are everlasting and imperishable]

renewed day by day"

(2 Corinthians 4:16-18).

Because

"We're all broken people,

don't

WE ALL NEED JESUS?"
