Broken Vessel

While browsing through

An antique shop

I found an ancient vase

Something bright

Had caught my eye

And drew me to its case.

 

I hadn t come into the store

To look for old knickknacks

And this old vase had a light

Showing through some cracks!

 

As I turned to walk away

A thought occurred to me

If this vessel wasn t broken

There d be not light to see.

 

Perhaps you have been broken

By trials that you ve been through

Beloved, it is because you re broken

God s light can shine through you.

 

 

 

Little One:  In the world a broken vessel has little or no value or purpose, but in the spiritual world, broken vessels have the greatest value.  They are the vessels I most often use. Humble yourself in the sight of God, and He shall lift you up.

 

Psalm 51:17; Isa. 64:8
