\"Children<\/h6>\n
God is the needle, Holy Spirit is the thread<\/h6>\n
Woven into the material where I am led\u2026<\/h6>\n
Jesus is the frame when all is complete<\/h6>\n
Joy for the journey, praying life will be sweet!<\/h6>\n
<\/h6>\n
Tiny stitches, forming my life, giving me hope to face each day<\/h6>\n
Allowing Jesus to have his way\u2026<\/h6>\n
Each color a design, created through God\u2019s hand\u2026<\/h6>\n
Surrendering as he gives each command.<\/h6>\n
Traces of footprints, and stained with tears, giving me courage<\/h6>\n
To overcome my fears\u2026<\/h6>\n
<\/h6>\n
Creating love, so there\u2019s no place for hate\u2026<\/h6>\n
Bringing joy as He weaves, while I surrender and wait,<\/h6>\n
What will the tapestry reveal?<\/h6>\n
<\/h6>\n
Each thread that\u2019s given forms the scene<\/h6>\n
Of a life where only the artist can see what it means<\/h6>\n
To be a tapestry made by God\u2019s hands.<\/h6>\n
Yes! Is my answer when he asks of me\u2026<\/h6>\n
Will you be still? Will you stay true,<\/h6>\n
When all is finished while I\u2019m creating you?<\/h6>\n
<\/h6>\n
One last stitch and you will see,<\/h6>\n
You\u2019re a masterpiece formed by me\u2026<\/h6>\n
Child, you are now complete!<\/h6>\n
Framed by the one, who made me, you see,<\/h6>\n
Jesus, I am your tapestry!!!<\/h6>\n

For we are God\u2019s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.<\/span><\/em><\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
I dedicate this poem to Lisset Sanchez. Your post about unity inspired me.<\/h6>\n
