Brokenness Made Whole
A contributor piece for the Advent Reflections Series at True & Noble
“But there’ll be no darkness for those in trouble.” (Isaiah 9 MSG)
We are not alone. The light that shines through the darkness is evidence of the presence of the Almighty. He accomplishes what no man can engineer. Full of mystery, wonder, and power His light always breaks through. The darkness will never be able to push out the glorious brilliance of the light of life. Jesus is the light of the world, the light no darkness can overcome!
“Prince of Wholeness. His ruling authority will grow, and there’ll be no limits to the wholeness he brings.” (Isaiah 9 MSG)
Jesus is the restorer, the promised reconciler, the one who takes all the broken pieces and puts them back together. He is the pure refining gold that holds together what was once broken making it new, whole, radiant, shining His glory and healing power. Our brokenness being made whole through Jesus, the Prince of Wholeness, displays His splendor.
Jesus came and dwelt among us, shattering the darkness once and for all. Yet, He is still coming for us each day and every moment, reminding us of His light and resurrection power over darkness.
“He’ll put that kingdom on a firm footing and keep it going with fair dealing and right living, beginning now and lasting always.” (Isaiah 9 MSG)
The firm foundation of the Church rests on the shoulders of the established Kingdom of God.
Past. Present. Future. It stands.
No matter what comes it will be the last thing standing. Now and always Jesus reigns.
Amen.
