As I sat with my baby boys in their play room the other night, I was given inspiration with imaginary missiles and superheroes flying past my head! Can you believe it? Yeah, I was a little amused by my racing thoughts in the aftermath as well… I looked down into the big box of building blocks and in the middle of it there was a Rubik’s Cube. I immediately grabbed it as I have always done when coming across one of these classic toys and began twisting and turning it to try my skills at conquering that intense puzzle.
After about ten minutes of reoccurring defeat I tossed it aside and focused my attention elsewhere. Several more minutes went by and I couldn’t help but to think of how accurate a Rubik’s Cube is in reference to life. I was baffled about how many things keep me frustrated and annoyed in life that I allow to continually disturb my peace!
We are instructed to cast all of our cares and anxiety on the Lord, and I want to encourage you to do just that… whatever hang-up is causing you pain, frustration, disappointment, worry, insecurities, etc.—let it go. Focus on the things you can control and give the rest to the Lord to figure out!
He’s promised us that He will not place more on us than we can handle, so if you’re feeling overwhelmed and at your breaking point, keep pushing forward—your relief is just around the corner!
You’re loved and important! Don’t let anyone make you think differently about yourself. Let’s conquer our Rubik’s Cubes together so we can continue to spread love and joy to everyone around us!
