My life - a rubiks cube

Sometimes I think my life is like a rubics cube... just when all the squares get lined up where they're supposed to be... someone or something comes along and messes it up and I don't know how to fix it.

There's a messed up rubik's cube on my desk right now. Can I tell you that I find it a beautiful array of diverse colour. I don't know how to get it back to its original position, but it has a use in its messed up state. It adds colour to my office. It reminds me that there are somethings I can't do alone. It's a challenge, and I like to surround myself with challenges. It just means I haven't given up on life... and it's something to entertain myself with in the meantime.

Jesus is the Master at solving the rubiks cubes of life. He takes joy in turning chaos into order... but also smiles on us though we stumble through the chaos... because he sees a beautiful array in our life that has come from messed up colour.

And that is what I am reminded of when I look at my rubiks cube
