Hospital For The Broken

I was on the awesome world of pinterest the other day looking for some recipes for the coming week and happened upon that quote. I wanted to scream it from the roof tops. I mean this is so TRUE y'all.  Church is for BROKEN people... because guess what? We are all broken people. Not a single person besides the Savior himself is complete. We all sin. We all have areas we need to improve. We all have our down falls. We are all broken... because we are not perfect! 

More and more today you see people of Christ's church following after men.... whether it be daddy, momma, a person you look up to or whatever... MEN. The view has gotten tarnished because people chose sides, or don't dig in for themselves and figure it out and take others words, or won't talk it out, and I have come to conclusions that this is CRAZY talk.... we chose a man's side. We should all only be trying to get on Jesus' side! 

Some of the strongest preachers of the gospel were BROKEN people. The apostles Jesus chose were Tax collectors, compulsive behaviors, deniers of Christ, doubters...... They were men that sinned.... Yep, not a single perfect person in the bunch and they actually were WITH Jesus in his life on Earth. Jesus ate with the sinners and the scribes and Pharisees complained...  Today, people are being like the scribes and Pharisees. We need to be more like JESUS and eat with the sinners and spread the Gospel and be PEACE MAKERS. Check out Matthew 5:9, Romans 12:18... While in the Word go ahead and read all of Ephesians 4.... Humble, Meek, Forbearing, patient, loving. I am for one very thankful that Jesus will eat with the sinners, because I would never have a chance to have a relationship with Jesus if it was only for the perfect.

When baptized into the church of Jesus we are baptized into HIS church. He died that awful death so we sinners might have a hope for an everlasting life. I think our Earthly life would be spent better trying to get the broken into the church rather than kicking them out because they are not good enough. Jesus had to die because NONE of us are good enough WITHOUT him, but WITH him we can be amazing. We can be life changers, we can be spreaders of light. Through Christ and Christ alone we are saved.
