The Tapestry Of Life

The tapestry of life is made up of many threads and colors..... We cannot even imagine how the Lord will use His threads and colors to create beauty in each individual life.

We can see only part of God’s design for us, but He can see the finished work. We cannot do the weaving, lest our threads become tangled or broken. We must let Him work “unhindered” so that we do not alter or spoil what He intended our tapestry to be. His threads and colors will be intricately woven into our lives to create a unique design.

We should rejoice in His patience with us in those times when we are tempted to “help” Him, or in those times when we’re not “still” (listening) as He is at work. We do not want to be “off doing something else” as He is waiting to add new colors or threads over time. His weaving process will always continue, for we are His works in progress.

He is the Master Weaver, and He blesses us all the days of our lives. Our God is so faithful.

“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them."
Ephesians 2:10 KJV
