having been fractured or damaged and no longer in one piece or in working order.

Joshua 6:15-20And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the Lord hath given you the city.17 And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to the Lord: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.18 And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.19 But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the Lord: they shall come into the treasury of the Lord.20 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

A year ago I did a one of my first lessons called breaking down walls in your life. And how sometimes we build up walls in our lives because of previous intruders in our lives who have hurt us or have brought sometype of hurt towards us. Yet what happens when your walls fall down? When go from breaking down walls to having broken walls meaning. The walls you built are no longer working to protect you from what you were trying to so hard to be protected from. It leaves open leaves you vulnerable, leaves you able to be free to do things you once couldnt do. Think about rahab she lived behind these walls that had her bound but as soon as Jerichos walls had broken well she was left wide open no longer would she have to play the harlot but it gave her room to be able to find real love! Broken Down Walls!

A vulnerable heart! 

vul·ner·a·ble[-p
susceptible to physical or emotional attack or harm.
Joshua6:25 And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

When you pull back the layers of an Artichoke you are left with a heart. So vulnerable! Think about in your life when you pull back layers that you once built up. Layers that would not allow anyone in but then they broke down only to leave you in a place of well i just want you in my life. Their is nothing more that I would want. Its crazy how a few broken down walls in your life can cause you to feel things you never felt want things you never thought you want. Bring you places you never thought you go. Yes it can leave you open to get hurt again. But it also can allow you to feel something so beautiful that you may have never been able to feel if you had spent a life behind walls

To feel something so beautiful

1 John 4:8
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

feel

be aware of (a person or object) through touching or being touched.

be aware of (something happening) through physical sensation.

experience (an emotion or sensation).

The point of me writing a blog that started out as a hard hearted harlot is because when you live a life that turns you cold enough to just count every man as just another notch under your belt. You have came to far to not care who you hurt, you dont care if you cheat, you just dont care.A woman so heartless so hard hearted that i love you's were just empty words oh you love me really? Commitment wasnt even an option. LOVE WAS FAR FROM REAL. It was just thing you read in fairytales that people said was real. Romantic movies become sickening. Others peoples love for each other is becomes just pretend like its all an act. Yet to start to feel your heart warm up to love..To accept love.! If this is love I couldnt Imagine my life without it. This is love to feel something you tried to run from your whole life love! To have chizzled away the hardness of the heart! To feel something so beautiful. To no longer be numb! To know you are loved!This is beautiful.


Do you know that you are loved? 

John 3:16
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.

Did you know that you are loved? What I have learned is the lack of love, the lack of accepting love, the lack of knowing your loved can cause a hard heart. Can you accept today that you are loved. You may not feel loved by people but God loves you!!! I once felt like no one loved me until I heard God whisper to me that I am loved! Oh he loves mee God loves me I am loved! I never reall could accept that fact that people loved people until I actually took the time myself to try to really love someone. I know for sure the pain, and the joy of loving someone that can be caused by the constant sacrifices you make when you love i feel is real. I know that when you love someone it doesnt matter how much you try to escape the love you have for them it can over take you you can try to put out the love but love cannot be quenched. Love is so strong it can turn any hard heart and make it soft. So do you know that you are loved?
