Mirroring Him in our brokenness

At AXIS this past weekend, we as a group learned and discussed an incredibly life-changing truth.  We learned that the point at which a piece of glass breaks in called the mirror. So we discovered that in our brokenness, Christ is mirrored in every break. There are so many people walking around broken, or with broken pasts that hold them back from being all that Christ intended for them to be simply because they feel that their brokenness somehow makes them unusable to God. In fact, the opposite is true. Each broken area is another opportunity for Christ to be reflected or mirrored in our lives. Is this not amazing?

 In the light of this study, we all stopped and examine our lives. Has the brokenness in us been an opportunity for Christ to be reflected? Have we allowed Him to fill in the cracks and bring about wholeness with the image of Him? The purpose of a mirror is not to become the image, but simply to reflect it. After all, we were created in His image. Which means that our lives should be a pure reflection of the image of the Father. I believe God loves to show Himself through broken things. He is glorified when what was broken is made whole and complete, and then is a relection of Him.

    I hate missing any part of Axis, for I know that what I missed was excactly what I need to hear. I am enjoying the work study, has made me get back into the Word. To take time with God and to turn off the tv! When is the next meeting?
