Do you have scars?  I do.  I am sure many of you do. 

  I am actually just sitting here looking at a puzzle and thinking.  Sometimes I feel like this very jagged piece of puzzle that I hold.  It is so different, pieces missing, and just doesn’t seem to fit in anywhere.  We all are a piece of this puzzle.  Not one person is the same.  Jesus made us all unique.  The awesome fact is that God holds all of us (His puzzle pieces) in His hands and places them perfectly together to create a beautiful picture.  Only He can see what it will look like and how it all fits together.  Our faith will lead us to obey Him knowing He is the greatest puzzle maker EVER! 

  This may sound like crazy talk but it just started running through my head.  It really perked me up more than a cup of espresso can do.  cheeky Thank you Jesus for loving us so much to mold each of us to fit perfectly in Your plan.  How incredible is it to think how He orchestrates our lives crossing paths with others and for certain hardships that are a blessing down the road?  I mean it!!  Look back at all the people who have crossed your paths and what good came from your hardships.  I love doing this!

  It just astounds me to see how much He plans.  It’s interesting to know that relationships have a season.  I mean there are people who come into your life who quickly leave, ones who are with you for years than torn away in an ugly fight, and then those who seem to be with you forever.  I have a hard time letting people go.  I get so attached to everyone.  For the longest time, I felt like I was supposed to keep all of my friends close and forever.  Well, when I had a falling out with one of my closest friends I couldn’t understand what I was doing wrong or what she was doing.  After my head was on straight again I could see God’s hand in it the whole time.  I just wasn’t listening, which made the whole process painful.  It doesn’t mean we can’t talk or have a relationship.  We just needed to be unattached so that He could have my full attention.  He sure did!!  I still love my friend dearly, but our lives are going on separate paths to reach different people.  It’s all part of His glorious plan.  Her puzzle piece fits in somewhere else in the picture. 

What does your puzzle piece look like?  Where does your puzzle piece fit?
