Are you broken?

God sees all, God knows all, God feels your pain...​
​

She lived in the city.  She was a woman of the night, a prostitute.  
Was she too far from God?  Was it too late for her to find comfort in God? 
Was she too "dirty" and sinful to even cry out to God? 
Was this all her life would amount to. . . selling her body? 

I cannot give you nicer words, her life was what it was. 
She had "heard" about the One true God. 
She heard about the stories of the Israelites and God knew her heart. 
God would give her the opportunity to be used in a mighty way and be saved. 
Her name would be mentioned in history forevermore. 
She and her entire family would be saved!

From her story we all can find comfort that we ALL can be broken and scarred --- yet we ALL can be made new!

She was what some may call "damaged goods."   It was certain that everyone in town knew of her life and she was considered the lowest of the low.  Her life would amount to nothing. Or would it?  In one day, all would change for  her.  Why? Because she chose the path that led to God.

Everything in her life would change and her family also. No more looking back. New life awaited her ahead.  She would never know that for thousands of years many would read about her life and how it all changed one day.  Most of all, that she from her family line, Jesus would come into the world!    You can find her story here:  Rahab and her story.
​

Are you broken and scarred? 
   ​You are not alone.

We all carry scars from the past, but after we ask Jesus into our hearts those same scars become stories that can help others along in this life.

Mistakes in judgement.  Marriages broken.  Abortion.  Lies.
We all have a past.
​

I cried.
I broke.
I looked up.
I found mercy.
I was humbled.
Jesus extended His hand.
He reached down, made me new  and lifted me up. 
I tearfully looked up and gave Him my heart and life. 
The pain, scars, heartache and brokenness are gone.
He filled me with comfort.
My empty heart is filled. 
I felt His love over me. 
There was comfort. 
I was His new child.
There was no fear. 
There was no pain.
There was no guilt.
Yes, I am special. 
Yes, I am loved.
Yes, I am His!
