Rubix Cube

It sat on my desk staring at me and taunting my ego...saying “you can do it…your nine year old grandson did it. Go ahead try it.”  

After an eternity of aggravation and frustration I goggled the instructions that explained the algorithmic method to the solution.  This did nothing but confuse the issue.  Now, I am thinking just peel off the little colored stickers and place them where I want them.

It is difficult to put into words the irritation and disappointment I felt.  But at that moment…that Erica moment…it became clear that if I could not understand this...then I would never understand the complexity of God and his thinking.   

I will never be able to totally process God’s logic in my head but some where deep down in my heart…in the depths of my soul…I know he is there, he is real and he loves me.

He is the only thing that makes sense in a world of non-sense…he is the only one who can calm my fears and let me know that everything will be OK.

I’m just a rube

With that Rubix cube

But worry not

he has a plot

For in God’s hands

Are my plans

It’s for the best

My final rest

Amen.
