Good morning, dear friends! Ever worked a puzzle, or two or three? Or maybe you're a puzzle lover who've worked countless puzzles throughout the years? Have you every flown and while looking out the windows began to admire God's creations? How the clouds look like large marshmallows, large cruise liners in the oceans below look like tiny tiny toys, and the ground looks like a giant puzzle changing forms depending on your height above. Amazing to see how everything links together perfectly according to the depths and heights we encounter along our flight.
While flying for my first time on a mission trip to Bulgaria several years ago, I became amazed at God's creations in everything I saw out the windows and was in awe of the grounds below looking like giant puzzle pieces as the spirit within me seemed to catch a glimpse of God's Word in Ephesians 2:21 and 4:11-16; of how everything fits together perfectly in His divine plan according to the depth and height of our walk with Him!
Our life is much like a giant puzzle and we, God's creations, and the circumstances we impose into our life become those puzzle pieces. Amazing how we seem to make every effort to fit a piece that does not belong, just because it looks the part and we think it should be there. But try as we will, it just will not fit, nor will it allow other pieces to fit into our picture which has a way of really throwing us off course until we finally realize it is not in the master's plan and perfect design for our journey. This puzzle is much like our life and the picture on the cover is God's perfect plan for our life; but if we don't learn to let go and remove those pieces that don't fit, we will never reach that finished end, but continue roaming aimlessly in our puzzling world.
Trusting God to lead and guide us allows us to let go of pieces that don't work out, so He can properly fit together those pieces needed to complete our life.That's why I am so thankful He sees His completed picture, perfectly fitted together; and that He never loses sight of who we will eventually become if we just stay focused and don't lose sight of our cover picture! As I look back over my life, I see where different puzzle pieces(people and circumstances) needed to be removed or switched around, both good and bad, to get me to the person I am today; and I know that as you go about your life under God's direction, that you will see pieces fitting together or having to be removed or switched around,to complete another one of God's great masterpieces- YOU!!!.
Just as God Never gives up on us-don't you give up on yourself either. It takes time to finish a puzzle so He sent us Holy Spirit to direct us! Ask Him to guide you, because He is the greatest puzzle solver ever Who never loses sight of His end result. He has a perfect plan for each of us and we will make it, dear friend, because Jesus has us all in the palms of His hands where we fit perfectly together. Trust Him, He never fails!
Have a wonderfully blessed day, dear friends, God loves you and so do I~~~
