| Heart Quilt Photograph |
One of my FB friends recently shared this image of a classic colorful quilt. It reminds me of my grandmother's creations, especially the log cabin quilt she made for me decades ago. That one did not feature hearts but had the same beautiful strips of fabric aligned "just so" in order to make a design unlike any other: unique, attractive and endlessly interesting.
Isn't that just like how Jesus works in our lives? Every day he helps us rid ourselves of the characteristics that are not fruitful and replaces them with attributes that benefit not just us but those individuals we meet once or many times. Each one of us has a role here in this time frame. Jesus is in the habit of creating wonderful people for His purposes. All are born to know Him, many will go on to live forever with Him.
The journey inbetween is an intricate and often complex design of our Lord and Savior's grand plan. We may not always understand, but He does and that is what really matters. Glory to God who touches our lives, allowing us to rely on his power and strength daily if we only call on his wonderful Holy name!
Thank you Jesus!
