Bless The Broken Road




Beautiful Garbage
Pastor Adrian Rogers

“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth…but lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven.” - Matthew 6:19-20


Years ago I read about a man who had a rather ingenious way of getting rid of his garbage. He would gift-wrap it, put it out on the curb in front of his house, and invariably someone driving by would see that wrapped box, stop, and pick it up. And the man would be behind the curtains, watching those people drive away with their gift-wrapped garbage!


So many times that's what the devil does. He just takes the things of this world and wraps them up so beautifully. But what we get is not treasure…it turns out to be trash.

Don’t let the devil cheat you—don’t cling to the worthless things of this world, but use your resources and energies wisely to invest in souls and store up eternal treasuresin Heaven!

Add up everything you have that money can’t buy and death can’t take away. The sum will reveal to you how rich you really are.


Bless The Broken Road
Selah






I set out on a narrow way
Many years ago
Hopin' I would find true love
Along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
I wiped my brow
Kept pushin' through
I couldn't see how every sign
Pointed straight to you



And every long lost dream
Led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart
They were just northern stars
Pointing me on my way
Into your lovin' arms
This much I know is true
That God bless the broken road
And led me straight to you.



I think about the years I spent
Just passin' through
I'd like to take the time I lost
And give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of His grander plan
That is coming true.



And every long lost dream
Led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart
They were just northern stars
Pointing me on my way
Into your lovin' arms
This much I know is true
That God bless the broken road
And led me straight to you.



Now I'm just runnin' home
Into your lovin' arms
This much I know is true
That God bless the broken road
And led me straight to you.
Yes, God bless the broken road
And led me straight to you
