Lost a lot of sleep last night. Replaying Bil's Message on Sunday in my mind.
Broken sounds so final. So negative. God wants us to be happy, doesn't he? I guess being broken before God means exactly what it sounds like; being injured, or damaged, before the Lord. And I think that it means, pretty much, laying out everything that you have before God. Being broken, you give everything up to God. You set it before Him and say, "I don’t know what to do, please help me.”
Simply put, brokenness before God is just a complete surrendering of everything to God. The key word being everything, which is a tough pill to swallow (Thanks again God for that "free will" thing…LOL). A broken man comes before God resigned to the fact that all they have is God but also with the knowledge that all that they need is God. A broken man has nothing and hopes only in the Lord for glorious victory!
All we need is Him! Sorry prime time TV, cool electronics, social events, that hot new ride.
Side note: Please don't forget to bring your gift to Jesus Christ this season.
God is Great!!!
