Hi, Friend!

God is reforging your life; you are no longer shattered.

You know that gut-wrenching moment in Spider-Man 3 (2007) when Flint Marko’s heartbreak literally shatters his body into grains of sand? You see a man undone—first by the weight of loss, then by a freak accident that turns him into brittle fragments. Yet amid the drifting dunes of his life, something stirs: a flicker of purpose, a reason to live. That cinematic rebirth mirrors how God approaches our own brokenness, gathering each grain with patient strength.

Matt
