Broken for Heaven

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:3 (ESV)

Being heartbroken, deeply saddened, in the depths of despair is sometimes a prerequisite for Heaven. It’s hard to feel like we actually have a future when we feel broken, but Jesus says that the future belongs to such. This world may reward the ambitious confident go-getter, but the Kingdom of Heaven is about rewarding redemption for the broken-hearted.

Let’s pray today that when we feel our life is in pieces we will go to Jesus and find healing.
