Broken

Day 14: Broken

This toy isn't actually broken but it is as close as I can get.  This toy has detachable parts so that you can turn him into a car, boat, or plane.  He is missing one of his 4 wheels and now he can't be a car anymore. :(  

I have tried to talk to G man about taking care of the things that he has so that they last.  In his 4 year old mind there are so many other things to think about besides what I have told him over and over again!  We did get to have a neat talk today about what broken means.  This toy isn't broken it has a missing part.  We talked about how we could use one of the other parts to make him something else.  This led to a discussion on how God can use us even though we are broken by sin.  God chooses to use the most unlikely people to complete His will.  My favorite example of this is the women at the well, (John 4:1-42) she was riddled with sin that made her an outcast.  Christ used her so that many Samaritans would believe.
