When docked on the shore of unknown territory, I have found that God silences himself. It seems to me, that when He is silent we hold one obscure piece of the puzzle , and can't figure out where the rest of the foundational pieces lie.
It is as if one has their corner pieces of the puzzle, but nothing else seems to match up, nor configure. This world is trapping and only temporary and when nothing seems to fit with the God given puzzle piece....we worry and fret.
How does one put the puzzle pieces of life together? This is a problem that I have been trying to figure out for sometime. I don't think that we put the puzzle pieces all together at once...for if He gave us every puzzle piece at one time...our spirits would be overwhelmed. He gives us major pieces in His timing, and the silence...well that is in some way building and strengthening our faith. If we are faithful to Him through His silent moments....the puzzle pieces may just sit for awhile...but they will never rot nor will they give way during those times. For the silent moments...are sharpening our faith to allow the pieces to linger and give them more of a substantial foundation.
So when life has seemed to have docked the boat, and the silence of God pierces the ear, hold that obscure puzzle piece and have faith that rest of the pieces are being held by someone greater.
