The cube

3 a.m. on a random tuesday. I just got off the phone with an old friend. When I say old, I'm talking I haven't conversed with this guy in maybe 15 years. We had a lot of catching up to do. Our paths haven't crossed in quite some time, but it's amazing how similar they have been. It's awesome how God brings people into our lives at certain times, and how he uses situations that we have experienced to connect us with others on this same journey. I have been thinking about it, and its like life is a giant rubik's cube. We are each sitting on a little colored square, wondering why we keep spinning and shifting, seemingly with no rhyme or reason at times. We have no idea what's going on on the other side of the cube, or that in just a moment we will be on that other side. Or maybe the other side will be next to us. The thing is, things often looked jumbled up and out of place, but there's one who knows the steps. He is working the solution, and sooner than we think, all will be righted in this twisted world.

We have a God who is sovereign over screwups like me. He is going to twist my world, and sometimes it will seem upside down, but through it all I know he is putting everything in line, in its proper place and time. It makes me smile. It makes me cry. It gives me hope. I gives me joy. So I will keep on dancing on my little square. Come dance with me.
