The Weaver

To see her hands
their beauty weave
restored my faith
made my heart conceive

of a graceful life
and a peaceful day

a man and wife
a place to stay

“We sleep, but the loom of life never stops, and the pattern which was weaving when the sun went down is weaving when it comes up in the morning.”
– Henry Ward Beecher

“We look at life from the back side of the tapestry. And most of the time, what we see is loose threads, tangled knots and the like. But occasionally, God’s light shines through the tapestry, and we get a glimpse of the larger design with God weaving together the darks and lights of existence.” – John Piper
