It's Five Minute Fridays
So I write for Five minute, no edits, no re dos and at the end I will see if there are pictures from this week that match the words of this week.
Topic: Broken
As adults we struggle to find ourselves and our purpose in life. We feel broken, useless, a failure when things don't turn out exactly like we planned. I know I struggle with those emotions, I am sure Steve is too. It's amazing how much our job defines us. And whether we have no job or a bad job we see it as a reflection on our own abilities.
Broken in what the world calls complete
"LORD, you are our father. We are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the product of your labor." ~Isaiah 64:8~
We are God's labor (job) and yet I see no brokenness in God for my failures. So why do I put the same thoughts and emotions to my own job. With the job I have no control over what is happening.
I need to give myself more grace
The job, the world does not define me
I am not broken

ReplyDeleteThat's correct. The world does not define us. Amen!
