Hope for the Broken

"...Whoever falls on this stone will be broken; but on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder." (Matthew 21:44)

Jesus is clear that the Stone prophesied of old was a Living Stone who is Himself and there are only two options given concerning Him.  To fall on the Stone is to willfully cast yourself upon Him. Though the result of such fall is being broken which is painful, but there is hope, for that which is broken has the hope of being restored.  The only other choice is to avoid the Stone all together. The result of such rejection is to be ground into powder which is complete and utter destruction.  There remains no hope for that which is ground into powder.  Fall on the Lord Jesus, throw yourself upon Him casting all of your cares and all of who you are. For though you will be broken, you will having a living hope and in the end you shall be established.
