Christ is building His kingdom with earth's broken things.  Men want only the strong, the successful, the victorious, the unbroken, in building their kingdoms; but God is the God of the unsuccessful, of those who have failed.  Heaven is filling with earths broken lives, and there is no bruised reed that Christ cannot take and restore to glorious blessedness and beauty.  He can take the life crushed by pain and sorrow and make it into a harp whose music shall all be praise.  He can lift earths saddest failure up to heavens glory.  
J.R. Miller "Streams in the Desert"
Follow Me and I will make you....
Make you speak My words with power
Make you channels of My mercy
Make you helpful every hour
Follow Me and I will make you
Make you what you cannot be
Make you loving, trustful, godly
Make you even like to Me.
