Mended: Pieces of a Life Made Whole
- Author: Angie Smith
SKU: 2664886
"Mended" takes you on a journey to show how faith lived in the regular events of daily life is all that it takes to be a part of creating God's picture of redemption in your life and those around you. Your life does make a difference--because of how He is magnified in the cracks.
Angie Smith is one who was quick to encourage a friend, but struggled to believe that God could truly make something spectacular out of her brokenness and disappointments. Responding to God's leading to both break and reconstruct a simple pitcher, she reflected:
"It was as though God were saying, 'Here you are, Angie. You are mended. You are filled with my Spirit, and I am asking you to pour yourself out.'"
I wished I had always loved Him, always obeyed Him, always sought Him the way I should. I was mad at the imperfections, years wasted, gaping holes where it should be smooth. But God, my ever-gracious God, was gentle and yet convicting as He explained.
My dearest Angie. How do you think the world has seen me? If it wasn't for the cracks, I couldn't seep out the way I do. I chose the pitcher. I chose you, just as you are.
