A Piece Of The Puzzle

Katherine is really good at doing puzzles. Everyone is rather astounded at her ability in this area, and I think she totally gets it from dad. Even though she's really good, she still occasionally struggles to get the pieces aligned just right to fit together. As I watched her struggling with one the other day (not wanting help, of course, because she can do it all by herself), I realized that we must look a bit like this to God. We try to make all the pieces of our life fit together, and we often want to do it all by ourselves. We may even be pretty adept, but we're still awfully clumsy sometimes.

I love the analogy!

Yeah, and sometimes we try to force pieces to fit together when they don't, right?
