He saved us, not because of any works of righteousness that we had done, but
according to his mercy, through the water of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
It is breaking moments like these that we realize how badly we need God. It is often in our broken
moments that we find rebirth in Jesus Christ.
Let's do something today to heal broken moments and lives as we offer God's hope and love in
Jesus Christ.
(Titus 3:5
NRSV)
"It was one of the worst days of my life," writes Clara Null of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in THE
CHRISTIAN READER Magazine. "The washing machine broke down, the telephone kept
ringing, my head ached, and the mail carrier brought a bill I had no money to pay. Almost to the
breaking point, I lifted my one-year-old into his highchair, leaned my head against the tray, and
began to cry. Without a word, my son took his pacifier out of his mouth . . . and stuck it in mine."
Some of you have been there. You understand.
Dear Jesus, let me not lose it all when I am broken, but help me realize my great need for you.
Amen.
