The Jigsaw Puzzle
by Linda T Reich

A card table set up
In the center of the room
On it, a jigsaw puzzle resting
We're getting ready to start it soon.

Mom takes a seat
And then opens up the box
Emptying all the puzzle pieces
Onto the card table top.

Turning over each gray piece
Revealing all the colors
Starting with the border pieces first
Ignoring all the others.

One by one the pieces fit
The picture starts to emerge
Piece by piece they fall into place
Until the words "it's finished" are heard.

Some days are like gray puzzle pieces
We don't know how they fit in
But with a little work and patience
We see that God may have a plan.

Each tribulation we go through
We may not understand
We cannot always see
That God leads by His loving hand.

But when all the pieces fall into place
We can start to understand
The beauty and the kindness
Of our faithful God's perfect plan.
