"Broken Masterpiece"

Today, I got to experience one of the coolest things I've ever stepped into. I walked through a thunder storm in the middle of campus. I know that this may seem very simple or dumb, but I'm not sure the last time I've been outside during a thunder storm. I'm sure that it helped that I was in a good mood, naturally, but it would have been cool, nonetheless. It's amazing to see the power of God, simply in a storm. I guess that's not very simple, is it? God constantly is showing me ways that He is in control. He wants to get my attention and my life and pursue me so much.

Broken Masterpiece is the title of this post that came out of my reaction to what I feel redemption is. I am such a broken person, without Jesus. I'm not sure how I am where I am today, but because of Jesus and His perfect love for me, here I am. "For we are His masterpiece, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, for us to do." -Ephesians 2.10.

I so often forget that the reason I'm here is to bring glory to His Name. As I walked through the empty campus earlier today, God reminded me that He alone controls the wind and the waves and tells the mighty, almost scary, thunder and lightning when to flash and when to crack. He tells the clouds to move out of the way and let His power shine through as the sun did not an hour after the massive amounts of thunder today. He is constantly forming me to the holy person He wants me to be. This blog serves as mere commentary (serious and silly and anything in between) on how He guides, directs, forms and loves me according to His perfect, wonderful plan. Enjoy.
