Beauty of Brokenness

As Christians, we are not excused in experiencing trials, tests and challenges of life that leads to emotional and spiritual brokenness. At times, we tend to ask God, "why?", forcing him to make a clear explanation why such things happen. But let  us try to imagine how our lives could possibly be with a smooth sailing flow and ride? It can make us so self-centered and boastful, believing that we can do all things by ourselves. But at the times of brokenness, we will realize our incapabilities, weaknesses and limitations that only God can fill. It is also His way of refocusing our eyes and heart to the one who can really make us whole. Brokenness is not as negative as we often think and perceive. It is sometimes God's tap on our shoulders reminding us that He is all we need.
