There are people who are so intent on trying to follow God for their lives, or so it seems. They are always asking the question of is God’s will this or that.

It may appear on the surface that they really wish to know his will, but the truth is there is a broken place leading them. So much so that God can never be Lord over their life until they surrender this broken place to the Lord for healing.

Your broken places will cause you to see a snip-it of what could be his will, but you’ll become so fixated on that thing thinking you need it in order to be happy. You will ignore all other possible commands from God simply focusing on the one you want.

You won’t get busy being who you are supposed to be because you are too broken.

You are still looking for an antidote to treat the wound you don’t even fully realize you have. You don’t realize that instead of focusing on what you believe you need, or rather something is God or not, you need to get your life under the control of God.

You need to rest in his provision and his healing and allow him to do in your heart what he knows that he can do if you only allow him.

When you allow God to be God over your broken places, you’ll start to see him putting you back together in a beautiful way. A way that proves that he has love for you. You’ll soon realize all that worry and stress was really your broken places leading. You’ll become someone who is led by his Spirit from the places that were once broken.
