I've been doing jigsaw puzzles the past couple of days and if you do them too you'll know how frustrating it is when you can't find the bit you want or there appears to be a bit missing! 😊
Life is like that sometimes when no matter what we do it feels like we've missed a bit somewhere or the pieces don't seem to fit together the way we think they should! It can feel quite puzzling!
It's at those times when we have to keep our eyes on Jesus so He can see we're trusting Him even when the picture isn't coming together as we thought it would. Corrie Ten Boom used to say that life is like a patchwork quilt and there's a mess of loose threads all tangled up on the back side of it but when you turn it over on the front side it looks beautiful as it comes together.
Very often all we can see is the back of the quilt and things look somewhat muddled but don't worry because God is making something beautiful out of all our lives and one day we will get to see it all finished. We are all a work in progress.😊
Until then let's encourage each other to run our race with the endurance God is giving us and keep our eyes fixed on Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. As we trust Him He will help us and get us to where and who He wants us to be in His good time.
.....I'm just off to find another piece of my puzzle.😊
