Restoration

Hey there. If you are like me, sometimes you need a little encouragement. So here you go:

When your heart is breaking, the pieces are falling into His lap. He'll restore you. When you feel like you can't even trust yourself, know that His trust hasn't waned a single bit. When love is hard to find, and you don't feel worthy of anything, remember Him. He became the lowest so that He could know your feelings and love you where you are. When you seem to be constantly reminded of your failures, seek Him; He will show you just how precious you are in His sight.

Jesus be my shelter that I can live inside. Be the place where I can run and hide. I don't want to hide myself in tents made of tearing plastic. I want to be found in You. If I'm broken, may it be for You. Take my heart and mold me like the clay that I once was. Purchase me from my desires and the death that seems to so easily entangle my life. Change me for You and make me a liberal giver of all of the resources that You have so generously given me. Take my life and make it Yours. In Your most holy Name, Amen.
