Broken Pieces - In The Hands Of Our Master Artist


In my line of work I deal with stained glass windows at times. Most of us never look at the way they are made or how they line up with our lives. Most churches have stained glass windows and we sit and admire the beauty, never thinking about the process of using broken pieces to create such a work of art.
The process of a stained glass window starts with shards of broken glass, which are then shaped to fit like puzzle pieces. The pieces of glass laying there without shape or form may look like just a pile of broken glass, but to the artist, it’s the start of a beautiful work of art, something that will have meaning and be admired by many, and that, is how God sees us, as a thing of beauty waiting to take form for the whole world to see and admire His handy work.
