Tapestries

A friend of mine wrote today in her blog:

God really does know what He is doing, and it is indeed a tapestry. We are all woven into the fabric, and as a result are bound together in ways that ultimately reveal themselves over time.


How right she is!

Recently I've been feeling down about where my life is going and what role I play in God's ultimate plans in His Kingdom. Where does He want to use me? Where is He using me now? I don't feel like I'm doing Him much good. But in reading this today, I was reminded that oftentimes God will use us in ways that we do not comprehend or perhaps even realize that we are being used...

He does know what He is doing though and it is all connected. He is building this tapestry, woven together in ways that we cannot see at the moment because we are only one strand of thread. But with time we are able to look back and begin to see the wonderful work He has created using us all together. One body under one head, who is Christ.
