Thoughts from the Tuck Shop steps

Once again, I'm sitting here in the dark on these steps thinking. This time my homework is actually done. I've been thinking about the brokenness of this world, and all the pain in it. Somehow, in God's perfect plan, He brought about the ultimate redemption and repairing of the world's brokenness, through the biggest evidence of it's brokenness.

The David Crowder Band sings in their song "Wholly Yours," "from wounded hands redemption fell down, liberating man."

By the gruesome murder of an innocent man, God's only son, who never sinned but only loved, and willingly subjected Himself to death and hell, and the taking of the world's brokenness, brokenness was defeated. Only by this can the breach be repaired, people healed and forgiven, and Shalom be restored.
