brokenness


Jesus said, "Blessed are the poor in spirit".  (Matthew 5:3)

Contrary to what we would expect, brokenness is the pathway to blessing!   There are no alternative routes; there are no short-cuts.  The very thing we dread and are tempted to resist, is actually the means to God's greatest blessings in our lives.

"The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: A broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise." (Psalm 51:17)
