My child,you are broken. Unless you know that you are broken yourself,it will be severely laborious to love the broken people around you. You will be harsh and exacting towards them.

Before this occurs,your love will be offered by the flask,not by the torrents of a river.-BoSanchez,Embraced

and carried our sorrows;

When I had my sheep, I was happy, and I made those around me happy. People saw me coming and welcomed me, he thought. But now I’m sad and alone.

And I’m going to hold on to what little I have, because I’m too insignificant to conquer the world. – Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
Do we know our poor people? Do we know the poor in our house, in our family? Perhaps they are not hungry for a piece of bread.

Christ is building His kingdom with the broken things of earth. People desire only the strong, successful, victorious, and unbroken things in life to build their kingdoms, but God is the God of the unsuccessful – the God of those who have failed.

says your God.-Isaiah 40

God has never led me through a difficulty in which there is no resulting joy that far surpasses the difficulty I’ve been through. -Joyce, itakeoffthemask.com
“I prayed for strength, and then I lost awhile
All sense of nearness, human and divine;
The love I leaned on failed and pierced my heart,
The hands I clung to loosed themselves from mine;
But while I swayed, weak, trembling, and alone,
…The everlasting arms upheld my own….
…”I thank You Lord, You were too wise to heed
My feeble prayers, and answer as I sought,
Since these rich gifts Your bounty has bestowed
Have brought me more than all I asked or thought;
Giver of good, so answer each request
With Your own giving, BETTER than my BEST.”
(Excerpted from Streams in the Desert: L.B. Cowman/Jim Reimann)

God’s breath is like a fresh wind that renews us. Frail and weak as we are,we have hope. We find healing. – Joyce, itakeoffthemask.com
The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.
