Broken Barn


This is the barn from my childhood farm.

 Looking at it now, you’d never think it was once a stately, brick red painted barn, would you? Looking at it now, all you can see is the wreckage.

Are you feeling like that right now, because of eating disorders, addictions, life issues? Do you see yourself and feel that you are like this old barn? God takes broken things into consideration:

“The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart...”
Psalms 34:18

That’s what feeling broken is all about, right? A broken heart.

God is willing and able, however, to repair what’s broken, you, included.  

“Then I will make up to you for the years That the swarming locust has eaten...”
Joel 2:25

Despite your feelings and life situations, you are never a hopeless wreckage with God. God looks at you and sees His Love, His Promises and His Victory for you specifically. Whatever’s broken is fixable; God’s working on it now!

“He is the healer of the brokenhearted. He is the one who bandages their wounds.
Psalm 147:3
