Come To Him Broken
So often, I think we feel unworthy to come to God with our problems. We think He’s too busy for us, to hear about our petty needs, to forgive us over and over again. We have this mentality that we need to look pretty, have our lives together, seek Him in a peaceful state of mind, in a room with candles and on our knees in prayer.
But I don’t think that’s accurate.
I think that life is messy. And we’re messy. And we’re broken. And sometimes, all we can come to Him as is lost, hurting, confused, and guilty individuals. Sometimes we don’t know how to pray, but we know how to scream and cry and yell and beat our fists into the air. We know what “to be hurt” means. And when words fail us, and frivolous prayers escape our thoughts, we can only come before Him tired and dirty and broken.
I think we have a hard time accepting the fact that we can come to Him like that because we know how awesome and holy He is and it scares us to even consider coming to Him in such a state of chaos. But if we understand His holiness and sovereignty, then why can’t we understand His grace and love too? If He loved us so much that before we even knew Him, He sent His Son to die in our place, then how much more does He love us now and want us to draw near His throne of grace?
Come to Him broken.
He knows life is difficult. He knows life is pain. He understands, He can relate, He is all seeing. And if the Creator of the universe can understand that, then He can understand our confusion and passion and anger and the cries of our hearts.
Don’t hold back. Don’t stay away. Come to Him as you are. And if that means in a shattered state, holding your heart in your hands, then so be it. Don’t let fear and guilt and worry about being and looking presentable keep you away from His loving and open arms.
Come to Him broken.
And what a joy and thrill it is to know that He is all-accepting? That He is all-forgiving? And nothing you can do will make Him love you less. He is full of grace and forgiveness. He has compassion on our weaknesses. And in the midst of life’s cruel tsunamis of suffering and agony, He remains the steadfast lighthouse of constant guidance and love.
Come to Him broken.
He specializes in putting back together pieces and making something even more beautiful than before.
