The Puzzle

One of my favorite activities, when I was a child, was puzzles. I loved the feeling of accomplishment when the last piece was put into place. I would spend hours focusing on pieces and colors and putting pieces in the wrong place. Getting frustrated, giving up. The whole process was amazing. I'm weird, yeah, you'll get over it.

Over the last few days, I have watched God put pieces of the puzzle together that I never thought possible. I've watched for years watching pieces being put in the wrong place. Getting frustrated and pulling them out and put them on the side. I've watched other people finish portions of a puzzle that I thought I would have had put together before them.

Whatever you are facing right now, know that it's a small piece of the puzzle. Eventually, you will be able to step back and look at it and be amazed at what God is doing. Today, it might not make sense.

Remember what it tells us in Galatians 6:9

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do NOT GIVE UP!

Don't give up. No matter what. Don't give up! It's going to be worth it. Chin up buttercup!
