This thing called brokenness

Hey everyone! How are y'all doing? The semester is almost over and people are on edge...what a great time!!! LOL

Anyways I just started reading this book called A TALE OF THREE KINGS and so far it's really good. It lays this foundation about David then moves into King Saul, the cruel king. There is a question that is put out there: What do you do when spears are being thrown at you? The expected thing is to dodge 'em, pick 'em up, and throw 'em back. But the right answer is to get stabbed to death. Shocking I know, but when you look at it from a spiritual perspective David was being speared for many years (a period of brokenness) to eventually die to himself.

It's mentioned in Chapter 9 that we have our eyes fixed on the wrong King Saul...there is one much worse. God is looking at the King Saul in you. Surprising....we never of it that way but it's true. Once God weeds out all those impurities you are barely recognizable; your personality is totally different. It's a long process for some but the it's all worth it in the end. Well, I have a get back to reading the book...until next time

A-TO-TU-LOU!!!!
