Episode 1077 “Kintsugi”

 
 

Today’s meditation comes from The Book Of Psalms in The Old Testament and from the writings of Leah Raeder, with music by Dreamware.

Passage: The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. —Psalm 34:18

Perspective: Kintsugi is a pottery technique. When something breaks, like a vase, they glue it back together with melted gold. Instead of making the cracks invisible, they make them beautiful. To celebrate the history of the object. What it's been through. And I was just thinking of us like that. My heart full of gold veins, instead of cracks. ―Leah Raeder

Music: “Here With Me” by Dreamware

Narrator: Ryan Phipps
