RELATED SCRIPTURE
2 CORINTHIANS 4:7-18
1 JOHN 2:6
MATTHEW 11-12

Probably the greatest obstacle to understanding God’s purpose for brokenness is this: Many think of Christianity as a series of activities. We pray. We read the Bible. We go to church. We worship. We tithe. We do and do and do—with the assumption that’s the sum total of the Christian life.

However, authentic Christianity is about becoming rather than doing. The life of faith that God designed involves receiving Jesus into our heart and allowing Him to change us so we become increasingly like Him (1 John 2:6).

This realization will change our perspective on the heartaches we must endure. You see, when we recognize that the Christian life is about Jesus’ persistent work of “re-creation” in us, then the role of brokenness makes more sense. It’s the process the Lord uses to strip away obstacles to our spiritual growth.

God doesn’t want to be Lord of most of our life; He wants to be Lord of all of our life. For that reason, He removes everything for which we rely on “self” so we can live moment by moment, day by day, in full dependence on Him. Won’t you open your heart today, asking God to reveal anything that needs to be surrendered to Him?
