the missing piece

ever been doing a puzzle and can't seem to find the piece that you need to finish it or to join the sections?
ever feel like your life is like that?
one of my favorite analogies from a lesson at a youth group was: you can only see your piece of the puzzle but God's got the box.
you never quite know where you fit sometimes you do find those with pieces around you where you just fit. sometimes you don't and that's okay too. we are not of this world so we will never quite fit here, that's paraphrasing it from the Bible.

However in my own life i have just had the possibility of a missing piece filled in. it was something i hadn't thought of before, but it was presented to me enough times that i thought i'd look into in mostly to disprove the notion, however when i looked into it further i found myself agreeing more and more with what was being described and then things just seemed to make more sense. one more missing piece in my puzzle, but the "problem" is that God's got the top to my puzzle box too so while i am desperately trying to put together the picture i think it is or i want it to be i am constantly being given new pieces which change the picture in my mind.
not sure if it makes sense to anyone else but me, if not that's okay, if so.. anyone seen a corner piece?? lol
