Jig saw is one of my favorite ‘go to’s any time!.. the more I think about this relaxing activity, the more I see how it is a highly controlling activity’…’ :) the boundaries are clearly stated, , colors are easily matched’ and shapes are somewhat predictable ‘ ’ _ even the preparations’ ‘dumping the box ‘ if your fortunate to own a puzzle board .. the pieces are safely stored to ‘sort ’ search out’ and place’ .. here an hour there an hour that easily moves into two … it all comes together’ …along with the satisfaction and enjoyment of creating order …out of chaos . .. and when complete it looks like it's supposed to look like…
not so much with our journey of faith... it seems to take years before the scenes of and in our daily lives come together to look like something to appreciate’ !. .. the Artist of our lives takes his time with his brushstrokes’ hitting the canvas in his time , with pieces of his choosing’ … for our good and his glory.
Right off the bat’ Psalm 19 begins with ‘the heavens are telling of the glory of God ‘ and their expanse is declaring the work of his hands. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. There is no speech , nor are there words; their voice is not heard, the line has gone out through all the earth and their utterances to the end of the world. In them He has placed a tent for the sun, which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber; it rejoices as a strong man to run his course. It’s rising is from one end of the heavens’ and its circuit to the other end of them’ and thee is nothing hidden from it’s heat . .. the law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing my heart, the commandment of the Lord is clean , enduring forever. The judgements of the Lord are true. ; they are righteous altogether . They are more desirable than gold , yes more than fine gold ; sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb. Moreover by them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward …
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my Redeemer. Nothing else in our lives will ever work properly until we receive God’s Love by Faith. The knowledge that we are loved unconditionally needs to be the solid foundation of our lives. Stay in/with the word _ respond to him with all your heart..live out the .. spoken truth.
