The Story of the Broken Vase

A woman had a beautiful vase that had been passed down through her family for generations. One day, she accidentally dropped it, and it shattered into a hundred pieces. She was devastated, feeling like she had lost a precious family heirloom.

As she swept up the pieces, she thought about gluing them back together, but it would never be the same. She felt like her mistake had ruined something beautiful and precious.

But then she remembered a verse from the Bible: "God takes our brokenness and makes us whole again." She decided to take the pieces to a potter, who carefully glued them back together, but instead of making it perfect, he left the cracks visible.

He said, "The cracks are a part of the vase's story now. They show that it has been broken, but also that it has been made whole again." The woman realized that this was a picture of her own life. She had been broken, but God had taken her brokenness and made her whole again.

The vase was now more beautiful than before, with a new story to tell. The cracks were a reminder of God's redemption and love, and the woman was grateful for the beauty that had come from her mistake.

This story reminds us that God takes our brokenness and makes us whole again, and that our scars can become a beautiful part of our story, testifying to His love and redemption.

Also, that God's love and grace are always present in our lives, even in the midst of challenges and difficulties. Remember, you are loved and cherished, and God has a beautiful plan for your life.

Scripture says God wants to give you beauty for ashes (Isaiah 61:3), but you can't receive the beauty, if you don't give God your ashes. Give God your hurts and pains, and then you can receive the beauty He has in store for you.

God gave me beauty for ashes. I walked through fire to keep my family doctor even though I had accidentally sinned against him, He saw my world, a movie based on my life, and condemned me for it, because it was romantic!!! He stayed for about two years but he was half nice half cruel, then a false prophet came in and brought up every single sin I had committed since I was a child, I was suffering from stigmata I told my doctor that I felt the wounds of Christ in my body, and that the psychic was not from God and dangerous. During this time I was giving my whole heart to God, I was truly in Love with God... the psychic told my doctor that I was truly in love with him, so he broke my heart by violating my seven year old child and just being a jerk...He no longer wanted to be my doctor, but once Jesus removed my doctor, God became the great physician and started healing many people in 3 different hospitals to this day!!! God Himself is beautiful in being what I really needed....I may have suffered loss from losing my family doctor but I gained the great physician who heals many! Beautiful!!!
