GGD: Season 2, Ep: 7 Why the Next Generation Needs You Broken Beautiful


Listen Later

This week, I’m talking about what God does to make the broken beautiful. Life is messy. Instagram isn’t everyday reality. Things break. We break. We don’t have to pretend we have it all together because the truth is, it’s not being flawless that makes us beautiful. If we bring our brokenness to the Lord he will redeem it and display his glory through the cracks to a broken world. I want you to know the difference between God’s voice and the devil’s voice when you go through something that breaks you. You do not have to be the victim of it forever. I know the Lord wants you to shine your light, even while the enemy tries to get you to hide it. In the church, sometimes women think looking like they have it all together is more important than being vulnerable.


I will reference in Scripture: 

  • The Potter’s house in Jeremiah 18:3-6
  • Genesis 15:20
  • Psalm 34:18
  • 2 Corinthians 4:6-7
  • 2 Corinthians 12:9
  • Matthew 5:15

    “My brokenness is a better bridge for people than my pretend wholeness ever was.” - Sheila Walsh


    “Our life is full of brokenness - broken relationships, broken promises, broken expectations. How can we live with that brokenness without becoming bitter and resentful except by returning again and again to God’s faithful presence in our lives.” - Henri Nouwen


    “Brokenness is the bow from which God launches the arrow of healing.” - Louie Giglio
