The Broken Vessel of God

10 Feb

The Broken Vessel of God…

After 2000 years, on June 7, 1967, the Jewish people regained their holy city of Jerusalem. Compared to other cities, Jerusalem is hardly the most beautiful, sitting on the barren rocks of Judea.

Yet, the Bible is filled with promises to rebuild it, to make it again the Holy City. Why rebuild Jerusalem? It’s like having a beautiful vase; one day, it falls and breaks, and instead of buying a new one, you gather all the pieces, one by one, and put them back together.

When you love something and it breaks, you rebuild it. That goes for your marriage, your relationships, and all the other broken things in your life. It also goes for you – you are God’s Jerusalem, His broken vase.

Because He loves you, He would rather put together the broken pieces of your life, piece by piece, than give up on you. He doesn’t give up on you.

So don’t you give up on yourself or on His love. Keep going until He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth, for you are His Jerusalem.

And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.   Isaiah 62:7

Do you have something or someone in your life that is broken? Don’t give up on what is of God. What can you do to bring healing and restoration?

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed
