Under the Tapestry

I mentioned a couple weeks ago that I had something to share that I was excited about, annnnnnd, here it is :)!!!!

Under the Tapestry

I've started up my own Etsy shop :D!!!! You can view that shop, Under the Tapestry, here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/UnderTheTapestry

My shop name is inspired by the poem "The Master Weaver's Plan", which I first heard quoted by Corrie ten Boom in a documentary;

"My life is but a weaving
Between the Lord and me;
I may not choose the colors–
He knows what they should be.

For He can view the pattern
Upon the upper side
While I can see it only
On this, the under side.

Sometimes He weaves in sorrow,
Which seems so strange to me;
But I will trust His judgment
And work on faithfully.

‘Tis He who fills the shuttle,
And He knows what is best;
So I shall weave in earnest,
And leave to Him the rest.

Not ’til the loom is silent
And the shuttles cease to fly
Shall God unroll the canvas
And explain the reason why.

The dark threads are as needed
In the Weaver’s skillful hand
As the threads of gold and silver
In the pattern He has planned."
~Author Unknown

How beautiful it is to know that whatever our life looks like to us, as we stare at the underside of the cloth, that God sees the whole picture, and is doing all for His glory!

Blessings in our Lord and Savior,

Bri :)
