The Blessings lies in our brokenness

What happens when we fail to submit and accept the breaking? What happens when we do not choose it, it chooses us? What happens when all we knew is reveal as a lie? What happens when we are tied up, tangled up, and wrapped up in façade that falls apart, as you see life really is just a stage? We are broken and have to start anew from this moment, and you realize, from in this moment I am  reborn. Then, you see, you choose the way to respond, it is your choice, and the journey begin. No one can make you or tell you how to respond; it truly it is your choice. You begin to see the failure to respond and the lies made you miss the blessings that lied in the brokenness and surrendering that occurs in your life; you lost out. You understand, you now know, how you have lost sight of the bigger picture, the better way, and the process necessary because all of this, the struggle, the brokenness endows the character with substance and value creating unlimited opportunities for God to use ‘me’. You able to be reintroduce yourself to yourself. You see the divine correction directives toward you, were really for your good. The disparities once seen as hindrances are now embraced as loving touches from God, fashioning you into the original promised being at your creation. You are able to breathe, you are eager for the touch of grace, you are longing for the air to wash fresh upon your soul. You begin to relax in what seems to be an invertedparadigm of truth but God’s way. Through tear filled and streaming eyes, you see barriers begin to be broken, bridges are miraculously built, and illumination whispers truths…as it reign firm on your spirit and rest. The reality of this awareness, the blessing lies in the brokenness, lights upon your skin sending an electrical like current that lulls you in a shout of HOSANNA and calmness called peace. For God is your only judge, and he decides, not another man, about your worth or what matters they are only here to help you on your walk in Christianity, and gives tender mercy redemption. You finally give yourself permission to become you, the authentic you, birth so long ago…. For blessings do lie in the brokenness. Gen. 32:28-29 -"Your name will no longer be Jacob,"He said. "It will be Israel because you have struggled with God and with men and have prevailed." Then Jacob asked Him, "Please tell me Your name." But He answered, "Why do you ask My name?" And He blessed him there. (HCSB)
