Broken Glass

broken glass

I have never thought about broken glass much before until a few weeks ago. On Valentine’s Day, I found an envelope addressed to me on my office desk. I opened the letter and found a simple note saying. “Leslie, I never knew that broken glass could shine so brightly.” The note was written by Cam, the principal designer in our firm. Needless to say, I had tears streaming down my face after I read the note. Cam has been so very kind to me and has shown me love the way I think a father would. This simple note reminded me that it is through our brokenness that we are whole again. Without difficult times and hardship, we can never truly enjoy the many blessings in our life. If you think about it, a pile of broken glass glistens more in the light than a complete piece of glass. So friends, let’s embrace our brokenness as a gift. It is through the brokenness that we can soar to heights beyond our wildest dreams.
