Broken yet Chosen
Have you ever felt like you were good enough?
Like a failure?
Like maybe you don’t live up to everyone else expectation?
like maybe you have just been passed over?
Or maybe things will just keep on going this same way and nothing will ever change?
Often times we judge by the outside.
We judge our lives based on the outside voices such as friends and families.
Maybe we live a certain way because of the way we are treated by others.
we live a certain way because we want to fit in, or it is the only way we know how to live.
We have gotten so use to the chaos it has become normal.
Or maybe we want a place, a relationship, we so want to be loved, we want value.
so we do things, we cross lines in order to feel some sort of value.
Or we look for something to help us cope with some sort of feeling, pain or even anger.
For some our families make constant pressure of not letting them down.
Yet for others it is being abandoned, maybe through divorce or just leaving, or maybe it is just not caring.
maybe its media.
We don’t look a certain way so we need to change that in order to be desirable, or at least have the appearance of having it all together
Studies prove that media can have a negative impact on self image.
TV, movies, magazines and the internet all bombard teens with images and pressures about what their bodies should look like.
The problem is, their version isn’t realistic.
These images are air-brushed versions of models who weigh 23% less than the average woman.
Nevertheless, millions of teens believe the lies and resort to unhealthy measures to try to fit themselves into that impossible mold.
But this is goal of what we should be like, so we do this in multiple ways
we don’t eat, we exercise,.
we make ourselves do other things that we don’t want anyone else to know about
All of these voices speak, and they lead do roads of feeling like we need something more, like we aren’t good enough.
roads of depression, of loneliness , of hurting, of constantly looking for life and only finding hurt after hurt
Then there is a story in John 4, of Jesus meeting someone just like this
So Jesus stands before this Samaritan women.
In verse 4 “He had to travel through Samaria”, it shows that God meets us where we are at.
In Jesus’ day the Jews, because of their hatred for the Samaritans, normally took the eastern route in order to avoid Samaria
Jesus being a good Jew wouldn’t want to have contact with a Samaritan, especially a women
Jesus chose the route through Samaria in order to reach the despised people of that region.
As the Savior of the world He seeks out and saves the despised and outcasts (cf.
Luke 19:10).
Yet Here He had to go there in the sixth hour- noon.
Jesus meant Her at the hottest time of the day when she was getting water by herself
You see she was alone because she was judged.
she wasn’t good enough according to the rest of the town, you don’t carry around at the hottest time of the day ,by your self.
everyone once else had labeled her, judge by others, yet Jesus God is the flesh is talking to her.
So Jesus says “go get your husband”, her response “I don’t have one”He comes back with “you have five guys you are with and the one you are with now isn’t your husband”- Jesus knew the brokenness of this lady.
what happens next it the most amazing thing and it shows God heart.
Instead of saying “you fool,” “your used up” “your no good!” or calling her names that we give to people who have been around the block a couple of times
He says “If you knew the Gift of God that stood before you you would ask and I would give.”
With God it isn’t about who you are now it is about the Gift that is offered, which is christ crucified.
God sees where you are at.
you aren’t hidden from him, and maybe even in this very moment He is telling you “if you knew the gift of God you would ask and I would give.”
Luke 15- is full of stories of things getting lost and broken and someone seeking them
It says that while the son was still far out, God meets us where we are at.
It doesn’t say he was clean , no but while he was still far off, still covered in the mess of the life he lived
God ran out to meet him where he was just as he was.
The women at the well Jesus told her everything wrong she had done and was still doing but yet He still offered her the free gift of eternal life
Are you lost?
Are you feeling all the weight of the junk that you have been carry?
God can meet you right were you are at, just as you are, you don’t need to be perfect because you could never be!
God came to seek and save that which was lost! and the story is not over
After God had spoken into her life she went out, she shared here story!
It is like she said “look at the brokenness that God has healed me from.”
“Look at the scars from the wounds that i have carried that He has healed.”
often times it is those darkest areas of our lives that God redeems and uses for His glory see God can take a broken Girl who struggled with many obstacles in life who felt depression, and many nights of dispair
and she can stand before you and say look what God has done!
she can stand before you and say “yes God can redeem that, the story is not over.”
And God can take a scare little girl with a broke past, with hurts and turn her into my beautiful who stands before you today and says “Look at where God has brought me!”
Your story isn’t done
God wants to turn your former devastations into monuments that you show others what God has done in your life.
This is the story of Lexi.
This is my Story, and this is the story of everyone who receives that gift of God.
Shoulder injury- The deal with the cause not just the pain.
