God weaves the strands of life
Into a perfect tapestry.
And though His plans for us
May sometimes seem a mystery.
If we but trust Him,
Even when we do not understand,
Our lives can be great works of art,
designed by His own hand.
Rich in love and harmony,
With family, home and friends,
Bright with inspiration,
And with faith that never ends.
Woven with some challenges
To help us learn and grow,
Filled with threads of joy and peace
Because He loves us so.
Have faith in God's great goodness,
Keep Him first in all you do.
Pray for understanding
Of His grand design for you.
Give thanks for all His blessings
And live each day joyfully,
Remembering you're a special part
Of God's own tapestry.
