Our Story

The Jeremiah Puzzle began during a difficult season in my daughter Robyn’s life. At fourteen, she was struggling with self-worth, identity, abandonment and bullying. Nothing seemed to help until one night around 2 a.m. when an  idea came to me after praying a desperate prayer to God for help. The idea I was given was so simple yet so powerful that I knew it was God's answer to my prayer.

I imagined life as a puzzle with pieces that were initially blank. The idea was to write key events, decisions, coincidences or people onto the individual pieces and then to put them together in a way that mapped out the course of my daughter's life. The final step was to put a green dot on each puzzle piece that that contained an event which was clearly orchestrated —  God's fingerprints.

I wanted to help her see her story — clearly, visually, truthfully — and understand that her life wasn’t random or forgotten, but meaningful and guided. The green dots scattered over her puzzle showed her that God had been with her all along.

When I shared the idea with family, friends, pastors, psychologists and counsellors, the response was immediate:

“This can help so many people.”
“This is a powerful tool for reflection and healing.”
“This could transform therapy sessions.”

Families saw a way to preserve their stories. Counsellors saw a way to help people identify patterns, trauma and meaning. it was seen as a valuable tool for memory-care workers, for life coaching and much more. Faith mentors saw a way to show where God had been active in someone’s life.

Many people today wonder:
Do I matter?
Why did this happen?
Where was God in all of this?
Why does life feel out of control?
Why do I miss the meaningful coincidences?

The Jeremiah Puzzle was created to answer these questions visually, honestly and gently.
