The Divine Weaver

My life is but a weaving

Between my Lord and me;

I cannot choose the colors

he worketh steadily.

Ofttimes He weaveth sorrow

And I in foolish pride,

forget that He seeth the upper,

And I the under side.

Not till the loom is silent

And the shuttle cease to fly,

Shall God unroll the canvas

And explain the reason why.

The dark threads are as needful

In the weaver's skillful hand,

As the threads of gold and silver,

In the pattern He has planned.

This poem can better explain that I can Romans 8:28 "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him..." God has a plan for our life, a perfect plan.  There are times that we concentrate on the negative things that happen in our life while God sees the whole pictures and  orchestrates all things for our good.

The more colors, the better, but the dark colors are essential too to give definition and accentuate image. In the same way in our life the times that seem harder are the ones where our character gets defined and where we learn to trust more our god and His wonderful work in our life. It is just awesome to know that our lives are in the hands of an amazing God that loves us so deeply and cares for us to the end.
