"We Buy Broken Gold"

I drove by a pawn shop today, and their sign said "We buy broken gold." And I thought to myself "broken gold?" I imagined tiny pieces of gold. Useless. Then I realized they melt that gold, mold it and turn it into jewelry.
At that moment God said, "Holly, that's what I do. I love the broken things that you see as worthless. I take you broken. I can see the sparkling finish. I can see what I am going to make out of your broken gold."
And I thought about that for a while. So many people don't see their worth. They just see their brokenness. Our worth is in Christ. He is what makes us valuable.

That is so true, God see's us so different then we see ourselves most of the time.
We have so much value! I love when He shares things like that w/us.. They can sometimes seem really simple, but they can really change our lives!
