Overview
When you encounter a painful event in your life—divorce, death of a family member, financial setback—you might wonder if God really loves you: "If He cares so much about me, why does He put me through times of suffering and brokenness?"Actually, God doesn't use tough times to punish you—He uses them to help you reach a level of spiritual maturity that cannot otherwise be reached. What feels uncomfortable now only makes you stronger and more beautiful down the road. In fact, God uses the breaking process out of love, hoping you'll respond to it in a way that brings you closer to Him.
In Embracing Brokenness, Pastor Alan Nelson offers an encouraging look at the hopeful side of brokenness. Understanding the process of brokenness won't necessarily stop the hurting, but it will make the pain much more bearable. And you won't have to play the game of "He loves me, He loves me not," because you'll clearly know the depth of God's love for you.
