Today is the first day of my blog. I was very reluctant of starting this blog I didn't know what to name it. I felt so hurt in my spirit and needed an outlet. I had been dealing and wrestling with God about this.  I heard a voice say start a blog. God this cannot be you, start a blog? I know nothing about starting a blog, only that I had created one in college and never added any content. I just did it as a grade. Then, God what is this blog going to be named? And Broken Crayons kept ringing in my heart and mind. It seem as though everyday for the last couple of weeks my youngest daughter has been having broken crayons everywhere, and I would throw them away. But we may be broken crayons and just like I was throwing the crayons away, some family members or friends have thrown you and I away but God doesn't throw away the broken, he uses them.

Today we start this journey together. I have a voice and I have something to tell the world. I want God to get the glory out of my life. I am 33 years old and for so long I have done things the wrong way. I am a mother of three and a wife. So there is never a dull moment. So this will not be traditional at all. I will probably write about family struggles, marriage, children, past and present struggles, you name it .

Are you ready? Lets get ready to color the world!!!!

Broken, But Not In The Same Place

Some of us are more broken than others. Some of us are broken and unaware that we are broken. We are broken but maybe not in the same place. If you have children then you know some crayons are broken right in half as soon as the crayons leave the box. Just like some of us, we may have been broken as soon as we left the box (the womb). Some of us had to endure being broken as children. Having to hear we will never become..., or feeling unwanted, etc. You get the point. Some of us were broken in the middle stages or late stages in life. Those are the crayons that children just like to break the pointy part off and you see the longest part with the little crayons that you can barely distinguish what it is laying around. But nevertheless we are all broken. Today, I learned a valuable lesson that no matter where we are broken, we are still broken. We should not judge the broken on their brokenness or on where they are broken. Because my brokenness is not where yours is doesn...

It Is Not Just You!

You think you are the only one that's broken, that's a mess? You are not !             Sometimes, we think God is isolating us but I don't believe that God isolates us to let us stay isolated. Sometimes the devil will isolate us to have our mind, because if he has our mind then he has pretty much won the battle.  We sit alone and start to believe that we are the only one  that's ever been through something, and that everyone is against us, my pain is worse than their pain. But I have learned it is how you react to the pain that makes other broken crayons able to be used by God and he molds them into a masterpiece. I am reminded of a project on Pinterest where they take broken crayons and place them in a mold then place them in the oven (the heat). When it is taken out  of the oven behold something that looks new, a masterpiece. We (broken crayons) have to go into the heat (experie...

Who Broke You?

 Happy Thursday! How many of you were in kindergarten and had that one child that just went around breaking all the crayons? Or  were you that one that used too much pressure and it just snapped? Then,  there were the crayons that were broken (brand new box) but under the wrapper it still looked in tact, but broken nevertheless. Some of us were broken by someone else, some self inflicted brokenness, and some of us are walking around broken and we don't know how we became broken. For me I think I'm a combination of all three. No matter what,  God wants to use our brokenness. Don't look to seek revenge on the person that broke you, forgive them and forgive yourself, (if you feel it was self inflicted) and run to Jesus, the One who can use our brokenness and turn it into a masterpieces. Walking around thinking you're whole, AND your wrapper on the outside will have people thinking you're whole but when they pick you up they feel your CRACKS and GIRL, remove your wrappe...
