Brokenness = Blessings
Even with your broken heart and your wounds and your scars
God's not done with you
Even when you're lost and it's hard and you've fallen apart." -Tauren Wells
I've been writing an open letter to youth about why disabilities exist and while I was writing about the highs and lows of ministry with disabilities, Tauren Wells' God's Not Done With You started playing on my YouTube. Do I have scars? Yes, emotional and mental scars from my history of seizures. I have physical scars from falling. What about wounds and broken hearts? Yes and yes. From being bullied, left out, and forgotten. I also have about ten different disabilities from an abnormal birth.
I witnessed a young girl get saved at a summer camp after she got excited to learn that I will not need my wheelchair in heaven. That I will be running around with everyone else.
So what if you're broken? It is impossible to be too broken to serve God. One of Jesus' disciples was a man who murdered Christians but then he saw Jesus doing miracles. God uses your brokenness to bless others. What's your story? What are you gifted with that you could use to lead people to Christ? I know it's not always easy to talk about your past but it's to bring God glory.
Me? This right here- writing and relating to those with disabilities :)
