Is there anything broken beyond repair ?. On an initial thought, it does look like there is. A glass vase for example, a relationship gone wrong etc...
What if I say there is nothing which can be termed as broken beyond repair ?. From my own life and experience, have I come to know of this profound truth which we often overlook.
Let's understand. In the hands of Jesus, nothing is irreparable. Take me for example. There were numerous situations and trials in my life which brought me down to nothingness. I lost my self confidence/ self worth, due to prolonged suffering i was brought down to a level where i lost my basic abilities. I thought this was the end, that there was no hope or recovery.
I was in a severe case of depression with no way out of it. Was researching for antidepressants and even seeing medical intervention for a cure.
I imagined myself as a perfect crystal vase, dropped down and shattered to bits. I cried and poured out myself to Jesus, said I could no longer bear this. And he miraculously and marvelously rescued me from my irreversible state of depression. Healed me, gave me confidence, which I never thought I will ever have. I got back the clarity of thought. All my broken talents and my senses were revived miraculously.
If you are going through a tough situation, you might be wondering right now, as to how many peoples lives were destroyed due to depressio and hopless situations. People have taken their very lives and that some conditions are not mendable let alone surving and recovering from a harrowing situation.
What was different in my case is JESUS. Nothing in this world can solve your problems. Only he can. Just speak to him and listen to his voice. Why ? Because he loves you even more than you love yourselves and he is more powerful than you can ever imagine.
Do you think a dry bone can ever come back to life ? This is irreparable. But not in the eyes of Jesus
The same Jesus who showers his love on me and you, will comfort you and mend you back to life.
Ezekiel 37:4-14 NIV
[4] Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! [5] This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. [6] I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’ ” [7] So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. [8] I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them. [9] Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’ ” [10] So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army. [11] Then he said to me: “Son of man, these bones are the people of Israel. They say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.’ [12] Therefore prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: My people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. [13] Then you, my people, will know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. [14] I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken, and I have done it, declares the Lord.’ ”
