Only in our brokenness

It is only in our brokenness that the Lord is able to minister to us. Without 
brokenness our pride gets in the way of His ministration. Pride creates in us a 
belief that we have control, that we have the ability to take care of everything 
that happens to us in this life and it is pride that keeps us from a life of 
deep faith, true worship and Spirit-lead ministry. It is in brokenness that our 
pride is overwhelmed as we become aware of our own fleshly weaknesses. When our 
boastful pride has been vanquished and we allow the Spirit to over-fill us, then 
and only then, can we become over comers for His glory in this world that is 
lost in darkness.
