Broken Blessings

The Japanese have an art-form called Kintsugi, where a broken piece of pottery is repaired with gold or other fine metals. The brokenness is not hidden by the repair, but highlighted by it. The piece is considered more beautiful for having been broken and then repaired than if it had never been broken in the first place. What a wonderful parallel to our lives in Christ! We were broken, but we are made whole by Christ. The scars of our brokenness are made beautiful by His grace.

Jesus turns the world upside down with His teachings. Where the world rewards the smartest, the most beautiful, the bravest, the most talented, God gives grace to the humble, lifts up the broken, and seats the least of these at the head of His table. In the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7), Jesus starts with what we call the Beatitudes or Blessings. He doesn’t say, “Blessed are the beautiful,” He says, “Blessed are the poor in spirit.” This sermon series is on the Beatitudes and how that translates to us as broken people living in a broken world.

In Genesis 12:1-3, God tells Abraham that He will bless him to be a blessing to the world. When we are saved by God’s grace, we are blessed, and God wants us to be a blessing to the world. We, as broken people who have been repaired, are called to find other broken people to guide towards the only artisan who can repair them. We are healed that we may be healers. Forgiven sinners that forgive others and point them towards the ultimate forgiveness. This is what the Beatitudes are all about.

Theme Verse: For God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. 28 God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are. ~ 1 Corinthians 1:27-28
