Broken and Beautiful

Broken and Beautiful

Broken things are all around you.

A crack in a favorite bowl.

The clock that doesn’t run.

Eggshells.

Today,

put away your tool box.

No fixing.

Love broken things.

Broken people

are all around you.

Flawed.

Grieving.

Clueless.

Today,

put away your tool box.

No fixing.

Love broken people.

There are broken places in you.

Physical hurts.

Emotional pain.

Anxiety.

Today,

put away your tool box.

No fixing.

Love your broken self.

***

Bob Goff

It has always seemed

to me that broken things,

just like broken people,

get used more;

it’s probably because God has

more pieces to work with.

***

Luke 22:19

And he took bread,

gave thanks and broke it.
