"a trial by any other name is still just as..."

It is through deep suffering and intense trials that Father produces the SWEETEST fruit in our lives that OTHERS consume. We must first experience and then embrace the brokenness it produces. Without suffering and trials, the fruit lacks taste and texture: it is meaningless and of no value. Consumers do not taste the "realness" of your words and your life will lack the "flavor of authentic experiential knowledge", or put another way, "it will ring hollow" and be disregarded. As Father takes us UP TO the point of and THROUGH brokenness we must embrace the reality of that by 1) the "experiencing of brokenness" shows who i currently am: broken and worth nothing of value, and the "embracing the brokenness" is taking OWNERSHIP of who we are by "laying claim" to "I have always BEEN broken and worth nothing of value". Once we EMBRACE our brokenness, Father then starts rebuilding our brokenness into what HE desires: A vessel of PRICELESS WORTH! Not until we EMBRACE our brokenness will we relinquish control over who we are and what WE want to become and allow the potter to make of us WHATEVER HE desires, whether a vessel of "noble use" like an elegant crystal goblet, or something of "common use" like a spoon or fork. Whatever HE desires for us to become is how WE are PLEASED to serve Him. That is embracing our brokenness.
It is important to also note that we do not STAY there in the brokenness, for Father lifts us up and makes us into something GLORIOUS!! AFTER our brokenness comes "breathtaking beauty"! Do not allow yourself the comforting poison of continuing to view yourself as "worth nothing of value" for while once that was true, you are no longer that pile of broken, worthless shards of pottery. The MASTER has rebuild and reformed you in ways only HE can do. You are NO LONGER the slaves in Egypt you once were!! YOU ARE NOW PRINCES AND PRINCESSES of THE MOST HIGH GOD. HE has adopted you into HIS family and you are now SEATED WITH CHRIST at the Right Hand of God's Throne! We are no longer beggars and thieves! We are Ambassadors, Nobles, Priests, and Joint-Hiers with Jesus himself! God is our ABBA FATHER! Enthrawled with our beauty and MEZMERIZED by our faces! His thoughts about us are as "numerous as the sands in the sea". HE IS CRAZY IN LOVE WITH HIS KIDS!! Do not wallow in the past! Remember the past, BUT DO NOT LIVE THERE ANY MORE BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT THERE ANY MORE! You STAND in Gods presence, holy and acceptable!! He does NOT condemn you, why should you?
Embrace the brokenness for through its death it produces LIFE. But remember that you ARE MADE ALIVE in Christ!
