Beauty in the breaking down
As much as I hate admitting it, I’m in a season right now where I’m experiencing that there is beauty in the breakdown.
In these moments of life I am reminded of my brokenness and feel completely out of will, breath, inspiration and even drive. That in the coming to the end of myself, completely exhausted, out of answers and unable to change my circumstances; knowing Jesus and having a relationship with him is sweeter than ever. In this place is where He is beautifully found because of our desperation for Him to show up and move in our lives. It’s in the deepest heartbreaks and humans great emotional moments where leaning on Him I’m finding His peace, His truth and His sweet presence emptied over my life.
And honestly I’ve sometimes had to cling to someone else’s praise, or someone else’s revelation of God to make it through this lengthy season.
But as I’ve journeyed and still journey through this season of so much unknown I just have to stand on knowing God having been faithful to again be faithful and even more generous than I can imagine.
If this is you too, if you are in a season where you need to stand with someone else and on the truths of God then know you are not alone. Each of us our own unique shattered glass turned to beauty in the mosaic of this life Jesus is forming together.
“You have wrapped me in power,
and now you’ve shared with me your perfection.
Through you I ascend to the highest peaks of your glory
to stand in the heavenly places, strong and secure in you.
You’ve trained me with the weapons of warfare-worship;
now I’ll descend into battle with power
to chase and conquer my foes.
You empower me for victory with your wrap-around presence.
Your power within makes me strong to subdue,
and by stooping down in gentleness
you strengthened me and made me great!” Psalm 18:32-35
