Broken to Restore

DAY 5 OF 5

RESTORATION 2.0


A crisis is also known as 'a challenge' because one of two results is expected; approval or disapproval. In school, it’s called 'promoted' or 'not promoted', and there is no better example than that because a crisis will either demote you, or it will promote you. I chose the second option, and that’s the reason why I’m here sharing this plan with you.


In my critical moments, while constantly complaining to God like a little girl, I chose to hold on to him with all my strength. Right there, I decided to lift myself up, and fight for his approval at the end of the challenge. 


I’m not going to lie to you, there were moments when I felt invisible. When no one could hear me or see me, I just listened to the silence from Father (God), who was calm and logical, saving me from drowning in the situation. Those who wait on the Lord will fly like eagles and have new strength (Isaiah 40:31), please, never forget that promise!


God tells us that our thoughts are not the same as his, and reminds us that our plans are not his plans. We often remember this at specific times in our life, but it applies to our entire lifetime because God wants your complete life.


Be conquered by his kingdom of love, I did and his love covered me, and my life made a spectacular turn.


Your Father has a great purpose for your life, and no matter what you or anyone else believes about you, your life has meaning. Not only meaning,  but high value paid by Jesus Christ on the cross, and remember; IT WAS FOR LOVE.


Your Father loves you, he thought of you, created you, gave you a name. God doesn’t allow bad things in your life, these happen because of many things, but yes, he has the power to transform these situations into things for good, and made good, with love.


I don’t know if you know God, or you if talk to him. You may believe he's mystical, with no certainty that he really hears you and considers every word you say. Maybe you don’t know he exists. Maybe you do but only in the context of a religion that is not for you, that you're not good enough to talk to him, or see him as distant and punishing, launching thunder and lightening on those who don’t agree with him (for a long time I imagined God like this), but he is not like that.


The greatest part of his love is a relationship, and believe me when I say that he wants to have this type of relationship with you, (he does!)


God is love, and he wants to be your friend and your father; he just wants to be everything that you need. So, if you'll agree, I ask you to repeat out loud, the following prayer from the bottom of your heart.


Let’s pray: 


Dear God, I come to you knowing that you hear me. I understand that you love me as I am, and even before I was born or committed sin, you loved me and gave your only son for me. For that reason, right now, I want to experience the power of forgiveness and love that reigns through Jesus Christ by the cross. Please, forgive me and cleanse me. I want to be a new person in you. You are my Father and my king. Come into my heart and take your place on the throne of my life. In Jesus's name, amen. 


If you prayed that, congratulations! You are now part of God’s great kingdom of love and right now, there is a wonderful celebration for you happening in heaven.


Don’t forget to share this good news with others 😊

Broken to Restore

This plan will help you understand how each process we go through is not in vain but helps us to grow up and, consequently, help others to get out and be restored.
