Wonder Volume XI


Sitting over a warm cup of coffee watching each person in the very moments of their life that could change their path; I realized that life is a very tiny stitch in the much larger quilt being sewn by our Father above. With each different color, each different thread, each stroke of the needle He is gently weaving our lives one by one, designing it with personal journeys and defining moments. Stepping outside of my own busy day to day, I saw the unique gift of my Shepard in the form of tears, rainy days, even a mother holding her child close. Appreciating the value of the path I have been blessed with, I reach deep within my soul to find what gifts and testimonies that are mine to share through the love of Jesus Christ. I challenge all to find what is theirs to share, whatever the form it comes in. Find Jesus within each decision and conversation. Broadcast the intense love with those in need who can’t quite fit the design that has been chosen to weave the coming days of their own lives. A spark can become a flame and change everything. The time has come for the Children of God to take their place in this world to put all of our affairs in order. There is no guideline and there are no instructions. This has turned from a worldly journey to an individual unveiling. What stitch will you help make in the final quilt of the world? Will you leave the homeless forlorn? Will you let the hungry wilt? Will you let the chance pass by to share the love of your Father with a lost soul? Don’t ever do that. It could save someone at the most significant moment in their journey to Christ’s love. Be a shield and protect your brothers and sisters that don’t know the unexplainable, passionate, furious love of the Almighty. That is our job. Stop worrying about dinner, don’t worry about the bank account, don’t worry about the grass, stop worrying about the least of all things in life. If you do not unearth or act upon your purpose, we are failing to start the Revolution of Souls. Where are the fabrics of your soul that you will offer up to be sewn today? Share, love, pass the hope along, and pray for the safe passage of all. After all, who are we to hog the warmth of the covers God is sewing in our comfortable, sheltered, sated lives? We are only the blood-covered sinners that are saved by the choice of one man. Humbling doesn’t even begin to cover it.
