Love Restores

His love restores, His words are true
What this world breaks, His hands make new
So do not fear, not anymore,
He can heal what's broken and torn
His love restores

Sometimes, we are stubborn in our ways, or we are blind, or we simply cling to what we know. Sometimes, God as to chip away the pieces-the good and the bad-to leave us vulnerable. To leave us raw and to give us knowledge and to mold us with goodness and grace. He is the potter, shaping us slowly into the most beautiful creation. Sometimes, the process is messy, and hard, and painful. To shed layers and to step out of who you were and into who you are meant to be can be scary, and frightening, and uncomfortable. We as humans have to realize He is truly in control of our lives, and He is the most gracious and loving father, wanting only the best for all of his children, as flawed and broken as we are. He will bring us through trials but it is because He wants us to get to the other side of that mountain. Even as we hold His hand tightly, it is still going to be scary, and hard, and that is because God gave us a heart that can love with an unlimited capacity. But it is through Him that we find peace, and comfort, and love, an unmeasurable amount of love and mercy. In my life I feel overwhelmed and powerless at times, and even incomplete, but in His eyes, and in His hands, I am so wonderfully whole and healed.
