"I pray you'll be shattered - and allow God to build you up again."
Yeah, um.....
If this isn't a doozy of a prayer to pray over our babes, huh? Job's story is hard to swallow. The breaking down and breaking down and breaking down of ourselves to be made better by Him. Lisa uses the analogy of us appearing like antique mirrors with some of the silver flaking off even shattering at times. But Christ heals us and rebuilds our mirror with new clear pieces that look more like Jesus and less like us. "As time goes on the glass becomes fused, we'll gaze into that shattered-now-rebuilt mirror and see less of ourselves, more of him. And others will see it too."
Today's prayer ends simply "And make our humble lives something that glorifies You, regardless of what it takes to get there."
Amen
