Interesting question, and if you are like most you might be very defensive right now.
No I’m not broken, I am perfectly fine. I know I have problems, but I’m not worse off than most and I know I’ve got things together a lot better than most people do.
Were you thinking any of the above? It is ok to admit it, no one else is around. Oh except God… But he already knows if you are lying or not.
In todays reading from Mark (2:13-22) – Jesus tells us he came not for the healthy, but the sick. “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick; I have come to call not the righteous but sinners.” He came not for the righteous, for those who have it all together. Jesus came to heal the broken, he came to heal the sinners.
So if you are not broken, then what you are saying is you don’t need Jesus. You are beyond the help of Jesus.
But there again you see, Jesus knows you are lying. Because we are all broken and in need of Jesus, so allow him to heal you and admit that you are broken and need him…
