The Weaving Of A Life**2000'

The weaving of a life is intricate in design,
a life that does not touch another impossible to find,
from first moment to last changing the lives of others,
like it or not, creating fathers and mothers.

Among a family of brothers and sisters galore,
or perhaps the only one of a family that had no more,
caring for those around you from the earliest of time,
whether family member or friends that last a lifetime.

The weaving starts out perfect, quite true to form,
from the time we are conceived till we are first born,
along the way some threads may be dropped or frayed,
the out-look of its fashion can surely leave us dismayed.

Yet when we look at the fabric of our unraveled life,
we can see the beauty of the fabric of heaven's device,
that the weaving we thought had surely come undone,
is glorified in the righteousness of God's only begotten son.

Hebrews 2:9  "But we see Jesus, who was made a
little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory
and honor because he suffered death, so that by the
Grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
