God loves working with chipped mugs. The chips are where people see Him pour.

Damage is usually treated as disqualifying, particularly by the person carrying it, who assumes usefulness requires being intact. The image here suggests the opposite: what has been broken and repaired is where other people can actually see something happening. Your worst chapter is frequently the part of you someone else needs.

Stop waiting to be fully healed before you are of any use. Tell the honest version of your story to one person who is in the middle of something similar. The chips are not the thing to hide, and they are not the whole cup either.
