Fr. Mike explains how God restores our brokenness, especially when it comes to our bodies.
So often, we find that the more precious a thing is, the more fragile it is. And when something precious is broken, we often think it’s become worthless. Like when we break a fragile teacup, we throw it away because it no longer has value.
But that’s not the way it is with our bodies.
God created us to be temples of the Holy Spirit, something very precious. But we’re not like fragile teacups. If we’re broken, if we’ve been abused, if we’ve been taken advantage of, or even if we’ve chosen to give in to temptation, we’re not worthless.
God restores our brokenness.
And through his grace, we are restored to even greater glory.
