Are you the missing piece of the puzzle
At our church brunch on Sunday we put together puzzles that referred to various verses in 1 Corinthians 12 (see photos below). It got me thinking - have you ever worked on a puzzle only to get to the very end and find that one piece is missing? It is frustrating and you search high and low, under the couch, on the floor, under the bookcase - anywhere you think it might be. Somehow the puzzle isn't complete and we try and resolve the tension.
Sometimes we are those missing pieces, disconnected from God and God's people by past events, unawareness or accident. But Luke 15 shows that God searches for us, and 1 Corinthians 12 shows that we all have a place in God's people - God's church isn't complete without our presence and participation. So lets be encouraged by that for ourselves and also be on the lookout for other people and see if we can help them find where they fit.
