Like pieces of a puzzle. Some may appear very similiar at first glance, but each one is uniquely crafted to fit into a specific spot. Each piece fitting in a particular place until the complete beautiful work appears.

Maybe we can't see it now. All we may see is our own oddly shapped piece of things. But someday, the completed, beautiful work will be revealed to each of us.
"For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do" ~ Ephesians 2:10
Beckey- Great analogy! Sometimes it takes awhile to see where our "piece" fits into God's big picture, right? Blessings-Kel
ReplyDeleteYes it does! and we have to remember that no matter how crazy we look - there is a place where we fit in!
DeleteAmen Beckey! Isn't it funny how often we believe another piece of the puzzle has more or less value. But even when we force a puzzle piece into the wrong opening - the perfect opening intended for that piece is left vacant. Oh for the contentment to simply fill the place assigned to me.
ReplyDeleteAnd if we force the piece into a place where it doesn't fit - it makes the entire picture look out of sorts. Not until we allow ourselves to be put where we belong does the picture become clear!
