Dear Lord Jesus, 

As I stand at the foot of your cross and gaze at your suffering and pain, you think of me and my life eternally covered by the shed blood. Lord, help me always remember to live a life which is pleasing to you to draw many to your Kingdom. In your name, I offer this prayer, Amen. 

Whenever I come to realise that my family and friends never trust me when I want to do God’s will in my life. I look up to Jesus. Yet I accept the misunderstanding and obey God, which truly is brokenness to me. 

• In order to reconcile with God, there are situations where I have to ask forgiveness and give back whatever I’ve received and I am compelled to go through such humiliations totally as it is the ground rule for making peace with God. My eyes shall look up to Jesus with a deep longing to see Him  being humbled  to the point of death even to die on the cross. In order to make this reconciliation ,Jesus took upon himself the public humiliation by submitting himself so willingly and this reconciliation is called brokenness

•  Because I am a Christian and when I see others make use of me and my belongings as if it is a public property my eyes will look up to the garment of Jesus and casting lots as in Matthew 27: 31- 35, and dividing it among themselves. I will also look up to Jesus and humble myself in  total surrender and submission and accept this situation joyfully, that is brokenness.

• When the behaviour of people reaches a point beyond my tolerance and  when I agonise greatly, my eyes will look up to Jesus and see him at such moments crying to the  Father, saying “Father forgive them for they do not know what they are doing.” (Luke:23:34).

I reckon myself sitting at the feet of Jesus like Mary looking at His face and eyes and writing my life and desire for Him to read and further to sanctify me. Whenever I wonder how to accept things that I cannot change like events, People, temperament etc. the way I am treated in different situations by denial or rejection, I have every reason to be angry, deceptive, living in Isolation and self sympathy, that is brokenness.

In this Season of Reflection, if you are short of ideas or in case you are frantically finding yourself fighting against the process of brokenness, then gather your own convictions alongside Brokenness Warehouse and turn back from fearing the process.
