A Jigsaw Puzzle

puzzle

As a child, I was fascinated with solving jigsaw puzzles. I would spend hours matching pieces just to see the whole picture. Even today, though I am no longer an ardent player, I still spend time playing the jigsaw app on my laptop.

Have you ever noticed just how nicely two pieces will fit when they are meant for each other? I mean you don’t have to deal with the stress of squeezing the end of one into the hole of the other. They just fit in a way that takes the process one step closer to solving the problem and making the picture much better.

How many of your relationships have been like? You meet persons and they just fall neatly in place. I have many friends who came into my life like that. Even now if I don’t see or talk to them for years, when we meet again, it’s like no time has passed. That is how your relationships should be. You shouldn’t have to force it. If you have a friend which you have to continually fight to keep, maybe that friendship shouldn’t be. If you are in a relationship in which every day feels like a battlefield, maybe the universe is trying to tell you something.

Even in your daily lives, the pieces should fit. You shouldn’t hate to get up each morning to go to your job. If you hate your job, maybe it’s time you do something about it. You should enjoy what you do. Your home shouldn’t be a battlefield. Everything should fit as it was intended to. If the pieces don’t fit, you are required to do something about it.

You cannot be a bystander in your own life. You will outgrow some things and it is okay! It is okay! I’m sure only a few of us are still close to our kindergarten friends, yet, we still have great friendships with persons we met later on in our lives. Outgrowing is just God’s way of prodding you to move forward to better things. Your only job is to ensure that all the pieces you are accepting fit into the amazing puzzle God is building that is called your life.

Keep picking great pieces loves!

Hi, I`m Chañel. I used to be a people-pleaser who gave 200% because of my love for people. As a result, I almost lost my mind and my life. Today, my goal is to make sure people stop putting themselves last. And, if possible, never experience what I went through!
