“There are fine things which you mean to do some day, under what you think will be more favorable circumstances. But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life - significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will.”- Grenville Kleiser

The Spring in Brokenness

The Spring in Brokenness
(Inspired by "The Calvary Road”)


Spring has brought a different meaning into my life. In the dictionary, it's described as the season for growth. It's not A season of growth, but rather it is THE season of growth. This is among the words I know God has etched in my heart in that it is running through every fiber of this amazing year, and I have something else to share that made all the difference in how I must live my life. It is with much joy that I am opening my heart to impart to you one of the most valuable lessons I have learned, which has led me to this beautiful season.

“To be broken is the beginning of revival.” This is the line that first hit me when I started to read “The Calvary Road” by Roy Hession. Not wholeheartedly reading the lines before this, I had to go back and begin with the very first sentence of chapter one. Prior to being asked to read this, my idea of brokenness stopped at these - having to mend a broken heart and arriving at the bottom of an emotional pit that someone has to get out of. Never did I think that there would be new life changing realizations springing from this word that would alter the way I view Christianity, and how I can walk with Christ in a way that genuinely brings glory to Him. I love the way Roy Hession suggested how we can live and bathe in God's victorious and boundless power to bless and transform us. The key is to get into a right relationship with Him and learn to have our will be broken into His will.

Almost always, we want things done our way. Subtly or blatantly pointing to ourselves as all-powerful and all-knowing, we turn out to be unyielding, self-glorifying individuals who are stiff-necked and hardened by our pride and “know-it-all” attitude. If we choose to remain in this state, then there is little God can do with and through us.

Brokeness is continuously responding to God's conviction in humility, admitting that we are weak and have sinned against Him. It is seeing sin as it really is, and not attempting to “purify” it by labeling it with some nice, intellectual descriptions. Our brokenness can only please God once we surrender it to Him, choose to walk on His high road and expect an undeserved favor from Him through His grace-filled love, to transform us from the inside out. This is where revival begins.

When we have finally emptied ourselves of unforgiveness, pride and our sins of reaction and admitting that we need to ask forgiveness from God and those whom we have hurt, we walk into the gates of revival, where the Holy Spirit fills us and God's peace will begin to reign in our lives, enabling us to do His work and enjoy His presence in the season we are in.


Calvary Road has done to me, through its emphasis on how we should humble ourselves before the Lord in brokenness, what no other book (excluding the Bible) has accomplished in my life. It has become an inspirational conduit for me to admit the truth that I am nothing without God's grace in my life. It is indeed all about Him. The radiance of God's love echoed through this by way of making me realize how Jesus Christ, in all His splendor and glory, chose to humble Himself and walk on the path of His children, leading to a plan that one day led Him to die on the cross once and for all. He was with a plan, and His purpose was and always will be to lovingly save us from the fatal sting sin brings. There is no need for us to ride on the treadmill of doing everything using our feeble human efforts because already laid before us is God's ocean of love, mercy and blessings. It is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Choose to live in His glorious presence now and your spring shall come :)
