My wife’s family had a hobby of putting together jigsaw
puzzles. Her father often brought home puzzles of greater
and greater difficulty. One night, he presented his family
with a puzzle of over one thousand pieces. Immediately
they began working on it. After an hour, however, the family
was frustrated. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t
figure the puzzle out.
It was then that her father discovered he had accidentally
switched the box top with the top from another puzzle. The
picture they were looking at wasn’t the puzzle they were
working on.
Often, we feel frustrated with ourselves because we don’t
believe we live up to what others want from us or even what
we think God wants from us. God created us to be different.
We all have our own “boxtop picture,” and the only way we
can ever be successful in life is to be ourselves, allowing
God to use us just the way we are.
