Life consists of pieces of a puzzle. The talents, joys, pain and suffering in our lives come together to form odd shaped tiles. Often we stare confused at the strange pieces unsure where they fit in this world. With out even a glimpse of the final image we can not know where to place our puzzle pieces.

We push and prod trying to jam the odd shapes into any opening we see, but end up only bending and tearing our pieces. Occasionally we simply toss the odd shaped puzzle tile away sure it does not fit any where.

God waits for us to hand him those bunged up pieces of our lives. In his hand rests the final picture. He takes our tragedy, our talent, and those things we love the most; rotates them until they ease into the final master piece.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
