The truth is, I’ve been broken since my very first breath. In this fragile existence, I have carried the weight of imperfections and the scars of life’s trials. Each breath has been a reminder of my humanity, a testament to the struggles that shape us all. From the very beginning, I have known that life is not a straight path but a winding journey filled with uncertainties and challenges.
And the truth is, I’ve been wandering since my very first step. With each tentative footfall, I have sought purpose and meaning in a world that often feels chaotic and overwhelming. There have been moments of clarity, where the path seemed illuminated by hope, but there have also been times when darkness crept in, leaving me feeling lost and adrift. In these moments of wandering, I have grappled with questions of identity and belonging, yearning for a sense of direction.
Yet amidst this journey of brokenness and wandering, I know the only reason I can stand here unashamed is because of mercy. This profound truth resonates deeply within me—a recognition that my worth is not defined by my mistakes or my struggles. It is not about being perfect or having it all together; rather, it is about embracing the grace that has been extended to me time and again.
Mercy has been my anchor in turbulent waters, a gentle reminder that I am loved despite my flaws. It has wrapped around me like a warm embrace during moments of despair, whispering that I am not alone in my brokenness. This mercy invites me to lay down my burdens and fears, allowing me to rise anew with each passing day.
It’s not because I’m worthy; it’s all because of mercy. This realization liberates me from the shackles of guilt and shame. It allows me to acknowledge my imperfections without being defined by them. In accepting this gift of mercy, I find strength to move forward—to embrace my journey with all its ups and downs.
As I reflect on this truth, I am reminded that brokenness is not something to hide or be ashamed of; it is part of what makes us beautifully human. Our scars tell stories of resilience, growth, and transformation. They remind us that we are all on a journey—each step taken with courage, each stumble an opportunity for grace.
So here I stand, unashamed in my vulnerability, grateful for the mercy that has carried me through every trial. With every breath I take, I celebrate the beauty found in brokenness—the strength that emerges from weakness and the light that shines brightest in darkness.
In this journey of life, may we all embrace our imperfections and recognize the power of mercy that surrounds us. For it is through our brokenness that we discover our true selves—beautifully flawed yet infinitely loved—and it is through this love that we can continue to wander boldly toward our purpose.
