Do You Feel Broken and Useless?

Have you ever noticed that even though how broken and damage a lantern is, once you light it up from the inside, the brokenness of the lantern seems to be consumed by the light?

The King of Kings is looking for damage and broken lanterns. He will take all sorts and shapes.

God needs carriers of His love in this dark and cold world we live in. He does not really care if you are broken or not. What He needs is for you to open up your heart and let His love set your heart afire. His light is so powerful that it will consume all your brokenness.

Now the light that God has inflamed in you must now shine on those who are living in darkness. You must be a sign of Love and of Hope to the world. "No one lights a lamp and puts it in a hiding place or under a basket, but on a lamp stand, so that those who enter may see its light. - Luke 11:33

We are all called to be a light to the world. But our light does not come from us, it comes from God alone. We are all too broken to shine by ourselves. Jesus is the only light of the world. They will see the radiance of Jesus in us.

Jesus said this to Mother Teresa: “Come, be my light. Bring me into the dark holes of the poor. Come, carry me, I cannot go alone.”

God needs you!
