Blessings of Brokenness
We're all broken. Mentally, physically, relationally, or emotionally—it looks different for each person. But the pain, grief, and hopelessness we feel are the same.
Diagnosed with muscular dystrophy at age five, Rob Roozeboom watched helplessly as his illness destroyed his dreams. Feeling painfully different and forgotten, he questioned his very existence, rebelling against God. But God wasn't done with him yet. Weaving his inspiring story with biblical teaching, Rob offers help for anyone feeling unloved, unseen, or unworthy, including how to:
· process feelings of insecurity, inferiority, disappointment, and hopelessness
· replace lies and negative cultural labels with truths from God's Word
· wrestle with your faith when everything's out of control
· experience strength in your weakness
· receive the hope available in Jesus
In your dark hours, God still chooses you—still has purpose for you. And turning to Him is the first step toward your brighter future.
