The Broken Claw Hair clip...
A claw hair clip comes in a variety of sizes ranging from small to big, and it is popular among women.
This claw clip is used to create various hair styles, and its job is to hold on to the hair and never let it go until it is removed.
There was a girl who was fascinated with hair clips, and whenever she saw an accessories store, she would walk in and buy at least one.
Her collection grew over time, and she adores all of her hair clips, which she alternately uses between depending on her outfit.
But one day, on her way to meet her friends, she noticed a stall selling only hair pins and clips. She was tempted to buy the hair clip, but she decided to first meet her friends and then buy the hair clip on her way back.
She and her friends had a great time, and they all made their way back to their home.
On her way back, she noticed the stall and stopped to look at all the hair pins and clips. Despite the fact that she already had a large collection, she decided to buy at least one hair clip.
After going through all of the hair clips displayed, she finally decides on one 'Claw hair clip' because it appeared to be the best and was reasonably priced.
When she got home, she started wearing it all the time. She used it to make a hair bun, lock plated hair, and claw loose/free hair. She adored it more than any other hair clip she owns.
After a few years of use, the claw hair clip broke accidentally while sleeping.
But, because it was one of her most beloved and favorite hair clips, she continued to use it as before... the claw clip continued to function as it had before it broke.
You may be wondering, "What benefit do I gain from listening to this hair clip tale?" Or, more specifically, what does it have to do with me? Here's the answer to any doubts or questions you may have.
Our heavenly father loves us unconditionally, and his love for us is indescribable.
[For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 KJV]
There are no words to describe his love for us because he gave his only son to die for you and me. He delivered us from the sins of this world and continues to forgive us even today. His love for us is limitless.
So, all I want to say here is that you may be broken or believe you are a broken vessel that no one wants.
For example:
When we see a broken utensil at home, we either set it aside or throw it away because it has lost its value and is no longer useful.
However, the company's manufacturer collects broken utensils and gives them to the potter. The potter heats the broken utensils and creates a new one from them.
However, our Lord God chooses the broken ones and qualifies those who are called but not the qualified ones are called. Because he is not like the earthly potter, our God is an awesome God.
So here he says, [ “Can I not do with you, Israel, as this potter does?” declares the Lord. “Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, Israel. Jeremiah 18:6 NIV].
He chooses the broken ones and shapes them into a lovely and wonderful pot. That is, he fills the gaps in our lives with his love and removes the obstacles or hindrances. He shapes and smooths us so that we stand out in front of everyone.
[but God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 1 Corinthians 1:27 KJV]
And I recall the song [Change My Heart, Oh God], which says, "You are my potter, and I am the clay."
So, let us commit ourselves to the potter Jesus, for we are the clay and let him take control of us. For he will never put his children into shame in front of their enemies.
So, when a person has a strong attachment to an earthly object, such as this girl, who never threw away the broken claw clip but continued to use it, giving it the same value, and cherishing it every moment.
How much more do you believe our heavenly Father loves us?
Here, the girl never attempted to repair the clip, but our Lord repairs us and molds and shapes us into beautiful people from the inside out.
He never gives up his children to bear the shame, because he bore it for us on the cross.
He promises to be with us and to bless us in all that we do. Because he shields us from all dangers that arise during the day and night. He never lets our foot get hurt.
So, here’s this verse from the Bible, [ He redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, Psalms 103:4 NIV]
And I absolutely love this verse because it states that he
crowns us with his love and compassion.
What a priceless joy it is! Nobody on this planet could ever
crown us with anything.
All we've heard about is kings and queens being crowned.
But, according to our God, he crowns us with his unfailing love and compassion.
Do you have any idea how it looks?
It's beyond your imagination, so you can't imagine it.
Your feet will never touch the ground because your cup will be overflowing with his love. And no one can take your crown away from you.
So, my friend, never be dull or think you're useless in this world. For God has chosen you, and he is preparing you so well that you will shine brightly in front of everyone who has looked down on you.
You'll become like the pillar where the builders refused to use the stone.
[ The stone which the builders refused Is become the head stone of the corner. Psalm 118:22 KJV]
For you are precious in his eyes and his treasured possessions.
[Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give people in exchange for you, nations in exchange for your life. Isaiah 43:4 NIV] [Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine: Exodus 19:5 KJV]
