jigsaw puzzle

i have had all kinds of events and things happen in my life that have made me ask the question: "God, why in the world would you have me go through this, learn that, ache through this, laugh through that...?"  there have been moments where i have gotten to use one of those things or moments and it makes sense.  there have been times where a new opportunity presents itself and it could only present itself because i was ready AFTER going through all the stuff.

lately, it has been feeling like a series of things that don't necessarily go together--but i know that somehow they will eventually.  i'm ready for the eventually.  i want to see how these pieces come together.  i'm looking forward.
