I read someone's status on facebook this past week that God can heal a broken heart, but He has to have all the pieces. This really got me thinking, does God have all the pieces of my heart? Not that I'm suffering from a "broken heart" because of a relationship but in some sense don't we all have a broken heart from our past, from our sins? I have seen God do incredible healing in my heart over major insecurities I used to have. From worrying about everything, worrying about friendships and what people think, to past hurts, to past things I have done that were incredibly stupid and mean. But lately, God has revealed to me deeper parts in my heart that I need to turn over to Him. If I am to completely rely on Him and see Him as my ONE and ONLY source of joy, peace, comfort, love, etc-then I must give Him every area of my heart. I must surrender my heart over to Him fully and trust that He won't break it. I have to trust that He will take the broken pieces and make something even more beautiful out of it. I have to trust that with God, He can and WILL continue to redeem me from my past! Also, to be able to fulfill my calling in life that God has placed in my heart, that will only happen if I fully rely on Him. It will happen when He sits on the throne of my heart, alone. Not next to someone or something else. But Jesus must occupy the whole throne of my heart! So, I will continue to surrender to Him the areas of my heart that I still try to control. I want to be fully surrendered to Him and emptied of myself so that others may see His mighty power and believe He can work in their life! Jesus empty me and fill me up!
I know this was short and maybe even jumbled but it is what is on my heart. Hope you were able to make sense of it a little. I love my Savior, my Daddy, my Jesus. I hope you know Him. I pray that if you don't you open your heart to Him and receive His unending love! It truly will change your life!
