Broken

We're all broken.  We are.  Don't bother trying to deny it, excuse it, dismiss it, get defensive about it.  Just accept the reality that we are ALL broken.  Once you have accepted that then there is the next step of acceptance.  We are all broken and in need of a Savior.  We are.  Don't bother trying to deny it, excuse it, dismiss it, get defensive about it.  Just accept the reality that you can't do it on your own and you need a Savior.  Now here's where the story, for each person, gets interesting.  We all need a Savior but a lot of "us" don't like Jesus. I'm not sure why.  Maybe because he says he is the only way, he is the only truth, he is the only one to offer everlasting life. This seems to tick people off.  So many people have turned to other people, things, etc for salvation. See, we all need a Savior but some of us try to find that Savior in eating, TV, sports, alcohol, drugs, gangs, other religions that don't offend us as much, science, relatives, politics, friends, relationships, etc.  Just one question:  How's that working out for you? 
I've chosen Jesus to be my Savior and I can honestly say it is working out GREAT. And I'm not just saying that to be stubborn, etc.  I really mean it.  Jesus, as my Savior, is the best decision I've ever made.  Oh sure it's hard at times but experience tells me that something worth having isn't worth it without a "little" effort, sweat equity, heart investment, etc. 
In our world there is the message that being broken and needing rescue is not okay but it is.  It's really okay and the fact is, nobody is exempt.  The other fact is that Jesus is for everyone.  He can rescue you, he wants to rescue you.  He is for you. 
Broken?  Jesus is the fix.
