Daily Devotion - Friday, September 25

Brokenness

Planning a vacation generally hinges on knowing your destination. The same could be said about journeying through brokenness. The destination point is common for all; it’s the point of acceptance and peace. Some call it resolution. We’ve covered a number of “overnight” stays this week. One final spot for an overnight is the “hotel of recovery and new life.”

When we take our time to really experience the points along the road to acceptance, we need to spend time celebrating the reality that we have recovered. Recovery can be recognized. Recovery is a time when you take your cherished pre-broken memories and celebrate what was, what is and what will always be! Recovery is that time when you discover an abiding invisible presence empowering you just like you “used to be” empowered. Recovery is a time for continuing the relationship in a very different and dynamic way. Life is life again!

The “hotel of recovery and new life” is our last stop this week. Hope you have a great weekend.
