Daily Bible Reflections - November 1,2012


Solemnity of All Saints
FOR YOUR GOOD
 
“Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted.” – Matthew 5:4
 
I was frustrated. I was working on a jigsaw puzzle and one piece didn’t fit. It didn’t make sense. This one piece had a different color. This one piece was even ugly.
“Perhaps it was a mistake,” I told myself. “Maybe it doesn’t belong to this box.” But sure enough, I eventually found its place in the puzzle. It belonged to the box, after all. Without that piece, the big picture wouldn’t be complete.
Friend, there are events in your life that are so painful they don’t make sense. These are like odd pieces in the jigsaw puzzle of your life that don’t seem to fit.
Having cancer, by itself, makes no sense. Your daughter getting pregnant out of wedlock, by itself, makes no sense. Your child dying of dengue, by itself, makes no sense. In your tears, you ask, “Where is God in my trial?”
Let me tell you where: He’s holding the other pieces of the puzzle. He’s on His knees, connecting the pieces of your life together, and completing the jigsaw puzzle.
The death of Jesus, by itself, makes no sense. But if you put together the cross and the empty tomb, it makes total, complete, glorious senseBo Sanchez (bosanchez@kerygmafamily.com)

REFLECTION:
Are you going through some trials right now? Believe that God is at work.
 
Heavenly Father, help me to always trust that You make all things in my life work together for good.
 
All Saints, pray for us.
