Puzzle

Trying to put together…the pieces of my life…
not knowing if they will fit…and in the end give me a beautiful picture…
Knowing that I am broken…realizing that you have freed me from my sin…
Wanting to put my life back just the way I want…as you tell me that isn’t for me to decide…

There are times…when I try to put together the pieces of my shattered life…
Wanting them to fit just right…the way I want them to fit oh so tight…
I know it’s probably not the way you want it…but as I learn to trust for you to work it out…
Help me realize that there is so much more to life…then the things I try to figure out…

Wanting to fit in…I know I will but I just don’t know where…
It’s hard sometimes to know that you care…but sometimes its hard to know you are there…
I know that there is hope…for me to feel loved…
But sometimes I seem to give up…because I have been shoved into a place I don’t fit…

What am I missing…what do I have to contribute…
What do I have to offer…and what do I have to give…
I know in the end…the picture will become clear…
As I learn what it means to trust you…to bring me clarity…

Inspired by Scott Shipman’s sermon about puzzles, and how each person is part of the big
picture.
