Life is Like a Rubik's Cube

Have you ever tried to solve a Rubik's Cube? Did you even get close to solving it? It seems that every

time you try to fix it, it just keeps getting worse, right?

Well that's how our lives seem to be. Every time we try to fix our lives, it just keeps getting messed up, and we don't know how to put it back together. Every turn makes more problems. You want to be able to fix it all by yourself, but you'll keep hurting yourself if you put matters into your own hands.

Jeremiah 17:9 "The heart is hopelessly dark and deceitful, a puzzle that no one can figure out."

If our life reflects our heart, then how do we think we can fix it ourselves? The Bible even tells us that it's something that nobody can figure out. It gets better. The next verse tells us how God sees us.

Jeremiah 17:10 "But I, God, search the heart and examine the mind. I get to the heart of the human. I get to the root of things. I treat them as they really are, not as they pretend to be."

So God really does know who we are, no matter how hard we try to hide it. He wants us to give Him our hearts so He can put it back together and we watch Him fix our lives, one piece at a time.

Proverbs 23:26 "O my son, give me your heart. May your eyes take delight in following my ways."

The first step into getting our lives back in place is to give our lives (or Rubik's Cubes) to God, so he can fix them just the way He likes it, and His way is the only way.


John 14:6 "Jesus answered, 'I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.' "

So remember, give your life to God, and He'll put it back together faster than you can say "Thank you, Lord".

Have a blessed (and fixed) life.
