Invisible thread

Today I was reminded of invisible thread, encouraging me to reflect on God's unseen work in our lives, connecting all our circumstances and other people's lives with us. Apostle Paul reminds us to "...walk by faith and not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7) and there is the much quoted Old Testament verse, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding" (Proverbs 3:5). If you can access Corrie Ten Boom's The Tapestry poem, it provides a beautiful description of God weaving His majestic and loving will through our lives with all the ups and downs we experience. We only see our lives like the messy underside of a piece of embroidery but God is creating a beautiful front image. God knows what He is doing. Let us trust Him.
