In life there will be times when things don’t seem to be going. Going good, going bad, or going anywhere. If you’re anything like me you get a little impatient. Stubborn too. We try to do things our way and sometimes, we get a little lost in our thoughts and then one day we realize, we have strayed from the path. Now, you find yourself wondering which direction you came from. So, you spin in circles. This is where the puzzle is.

In a moment it’s like someone laid out one of those big floor puzzles for kids. They put all the pieces face up and in the right spots, just didn’t connect them. Now, they put a blind fold on you and randomly turn/flip all the pieces. Still in the same spot, but not the right position. With that blindfold on, you have to put the puzzle together. Doing this on our own is impossible. You might, maybe, eventually, get it together. Instead, we need to stop and listen. You might find that the person laying it all out for you is God and He is telling you what to do. He is giving you all the right directions. Constantly instructing you on how to put this puzzle together. You may not be able to see Him, but if you stop and listen, you WILL hear Him.

“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.” –Psalm 32:8
