Broken and Beloved Quotes

“The beautiful thing about Jesus is that He meets us in the ordinariness of life. He meets us where we are, not where we should be. He meets us in the loneliness of our Friday nights as we polish off another season on Netflix. He meets us in the lingering marital fights that push past the weekend into Monday, Tuesday morning. He meets us in the awkwardness that is our families and the difficulty that can be our children. He meets us, too, in the very places we most hate ourselves and wish we could be anyone else. Jesus pursues us, reaches out for us, not in the extraordinary moments of life, but the most ordinary ones, like a simple breakfast with tired, hungry friends on the beach.”

“That's how the grace of God in Christ is. He comes the first time, the second time, the third time, as many times as it takes to bring us in repentance back to Himself. God's grace is more stubborn than our sin.”
