Broken things are branded useless in the world’s eyes. Once an item is ruined it becomes damaged goods and is discarded. In the same way, when our hopes and dreams are smashed, we deem ourselves useless. Worthless. Ruined. Opposite from the world’s view, God doesn’t use anything or anyone until they’ve first been broken. By handing Him the pieces, God restores us into a thing of beauty useful to His kingdom.
