We are each caught

In a tapestry

Of love.

 

God, who is the love

Of our parents,

Worked through them

And in them

To love us into life

Adding our thread

To the whole.

 

But the tapestry

Isn’t static.

Threads respond

To each other

In harmony

Or not.

Inasmuch as we are

Loving and authentic

We bring colour and beauty

To the tapestry.

 

In God’s time

Our threads

May coalesce

Thereby bringing

Other threads

Into being.

We nurture those threads

And others,

The warp and the weft

Aiding the master weaver.

Sharing love

Sharing God
