A puzzle Piece Missing?

Me-Maw Thoughts

Have you ever felt like a piece of the puzzle of your life was missing?

Think about a child working on a puzzle with large pieces. There is one piece left and the child is trying to make it fit but has it turned the wrong way.  No matter how hard that child presses or how long he or she tries or cries that puzzle piece will never fit until it is turned the correct way.

This child is trying so hard to do it their self but finally ask their parent for help and as the parent takes the puzzle piece and turns it the right direction it goes easily into place.

God has a plan and purpose for each of us.  When we try to put the pieces of our life together on our own we become like the child with the puzzle. We become frustrated and may even cry and pray God…WHY.

But when we release the pieces of our lives to the Creator God..the Father who created it all.. He makes something beautiful of it.  He makes the parts fit together and makes the whole purpose of our life come together.

Our Father God, creator of all that is, wants to be in control of every action, decision, and area of our life.  WHY? Because He knows which way each piece fits. He can easily turn the parts of our life in the right direction and we will be whole and prosperous and successful.

Psalm 32:8 (KJV)
⁸ I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.

Psalm 143:8 (KJV)
⁸ Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.

Jeremiah 33:3 (KJV)
³ Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

Psalm 23:1 (KJV)
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

 

It breaks my heart when I see people struggling, worrying, fretting and planning with no thought that the one who knows everything and created everything is just waiting for us to release all we are and all we need to Him.  The enemy so invades our minds to make us believe that we can do it ourselves without the help of our Heavenly Father.

To quote a familiar phrase: “How is that working for you?”

 

What a privilege to bring all our cares, concerns and pieces of our lives and just place them in the hands of a loving and powerful God. What a privilege to release all the worries and fears and frustrations to our Lord God Almighty.

 

Because Jesus Loves, came and rose again, we can live life abundant and free from all the junk that the enemy of all that is good throws at us.

 

Are you trying to figure it out? Turn it over to Jesus and let Him turn the things of your life in the right direction.

 

I know that I talk a lot about letting God take control, but that is such a tremendous Blessing. When your heart is troubled and your mind is in turmoil just take a few minutes and say to your Heavenly Father “I release this to your Lordship!”  Name the situation and problem or worry.

 

Our God is able.  What are you trying to make fit in your life that you need to just release to the Almighty God of the Universe?

 

He is waiting with outstretched arms!!
