Can what once played a beautiful sound once again play a melody?
Can what is broken ever be put back together?
Isn't this a question that, if we're honest with ourselves, we crave to know the answer to? Not one of us have endured this life without experiencing the pain, hardships, and curveballs that life has thrown at us. We are all sinners living in a broken, messed up, sin filled world. As good as we try to be at dodging these things there is a commonality amongst us all; we are broken. We are far from home. The longing within all of us, no matter how quite it is, exist for one reason. There is more. My soul cries out for that which I crave- to be a home with my Jesus. Oh how I long for heaven where there will be no more death, nor morning nor crying nor pain anymore. A heaven where my Jesus sits enthroned on high, a mighty King. A heaven where I can enjoy endless intimacy with the Creator of this universe; my Abba. A heaven where we will not hurt each other anymore. A heaven where all things are made new. A heaven where what was once shattered, beaten, broken, worn down beyond repair will indeed be fully repaired. We will be free. What a glorious place this will be!
In the meantime, let us cling to the truth that God is indeed for us. He will never leave us nor forsake us. He will finish the work that He has begun in each of us. He will orchestrate the tapestry of our lives in such a way as to bring Him the upmost Glory will working all of these things for our good.
Jesus is my King, my Lord, my friend, my savior, my husband, my provider, my protector, my Father; He is the keeper of my soul- this is my Jesus.
