Hey New Life,
How are you doing this week?
We finished the Gospel of John this past Sunday. We talked about our walk, our witness, and Christ’s work. In it, I read a poem from Corrie Ten Boom.
Take some time this week and meditate on its truths:
My life is but a weaving
Between my God and me.
I cannot choose the colors
He weaveth steadily.
Oft’ times He weaveth sorrow;
And I in foolish pride
Forget He sees the upper
And I the underside.
Not ’til the loom is silent
And the shuttles cease to fly
Will God unroll the canvas
And reveal the reason why.
The dark threads are as needful
In the weaver’s skillful hand
As the threads of gold and silver
In the pattern He has planned
He knows, He loves, He cares;
Nothing this truth can dim.
He gives the very best to those
Who leave the choice to Him.
There is no greater display of these truths than the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, which are for our salvation in His love.
May the love of Christ in His death and the victory of Christ in His resurrection be your hope and foundation today and forevermore.
In Christ,
Pastor Tim
