Back in 1989, I was a cheerleader at Eureka High School, training for the DC National Championship.
(Go Wildcats!!!)
But then, I started having pain in my shin that hurt REALLY BAD!
When I went to get x-rayed, we found out that I had a STRESS fracture. I had, actually, broken my leg pounding on it too many times.
I had to sit-out practice, for a while, and let it heal. My team was upset with me. I was upset with me!
I was BROKEN!
When I went back to the doctor to see if I could cheer again, I was concerned about going back to those SAME moves that injured me.
But, the doctor taught me something AMAZING about how bones heal. It’s called, “remodeling.”
Apparently, when a bone is broken, our body goes to work, overtime, and heals that area HARDER and STRONGER than it was, originally.
We’re never gonna break THERE, again!
That’s how God is working in OUR lives, right now. He sees where we’re STRESSED, WEAK, or BROKEN and He remodels, reinforces and builds us up to make us stronger and more resilient.
God says, “Don’t worry about those places you were broken.”
- Don’t worry about that relationship that didn’t work out.
- Don’t worry about that money problem that you had.
- Don’t worry about that addiction thing that you’ve got going on.
God is like Gorilla Glue for the heart! Where we are broken…He can fill the GAP!
With God, WE WILL RISE out of our brokenness, STRONGER than we’ve ever been before!
