It takes broken soil to produce a crop,
broken clouds to give rain,
broken grain to give bread,
broken bread to give strength."
- Vance Havner
We've all been broken in some way
We may have experienced broken
bones, broken hearts, broken dreams, or broken promises.
May the brokenness in us, in all humanity,
bring us to deeper compassion,
sweeter loving,
greater wisdom,
and powerful transformations.
THE FIRST GIFT IS STRENGTH.
May you remember to call upon it
whenever you need it.
from The Twelve Gifts of Birth
