God Wastes Nothing but Weaves Everything for His Glory and Our Good

Have you ever compared the front and back of a tapestry? In the hands of a skilled weaver, the front displays incredible artistry and fine detail. What we see on the back appears to be a mess—with only some components of the image appearing. Where the front is smooth, the back is filled with knots and loose ends.

We are meant to see the front of the piece with its intricate pattern at completion. Someday, we will see the beautiful tapestry the Master Weaver has been creating through all the events in our lives—even the suffering. We would never have chosen some of the trials, nor do we understand them as they occur. Yet, they are all part of God’s plan that tie together His masterpiece.

The theme of WEAVER emphasizes that God wastes nothing but uses everything for His glory and our good. Scripture passages with their application are like multi-colored and textured threads woven to create a tapestry of God’s Truth and purpose in our lives. In using the daily questions, the Scripture comes alive as it is applied. We begin to see God’s weaving of our unique life situations.

Life is But a Weaving by Corrie Ten Boom

My life is but a weaving

Between my God and me.

I cannot choose the colors

He weaveth steadily.

Oft’ times He weaveth sorrow;

And I in foolish pride

Forget He sees the upper

And I the underside.

Not ’til the loom is silent

And the shuttles cease to fly

Will God unroll the canvas

And reveal the reason why.

The dark threads are as needful

In the weaver’s skillful hand

As the threads of gold and silver

In the pattern He has planned

He knows, He loves, He cares;

Nothing this truth can dim.

He gives the very best to those

Who leave the choice to Him.
