Recently my niece was in town and she told me she always wanted to try to embroider. I had always wanted to try as well so we spent one morning together sitting across from one another stitching, and it was lovely.

This project has been a work in progress for the two of us since, and we keep checking in with one another. Last night, I was finally able to send my niece my completed piece.

As I looked at it, I was reminded of something someone told me years ago. Life is like a tapestry, we see the back side of it, with all the threads messy and entangled. Yet God sees the front side, the picture beauitfully woven together.

I share this with you today to invite you to join me to…

pause. breathe. pray.™

Whatever is on our hearts today that have us feeling messy and entangled within, may we bring it to God. May we be reminded that we don’t always see the whole picture like He does, and may we trust He is weaving something beautiful together on the other side.

With love and hope,

Shawn
