Just a Cloth
seeing the cloth.. He picks it up.. inspects it.. feels it.. even smells it... He is pleased with the cloth..
the cloth satisfies Him..
taking the cloth.. He first washes it.. and lays it out..stretching it a bit
then He irons the wrinkles out...
preparing the cloth
this is quite a labor intensive process.. for the cloth had stains and plenty of wrinkles and even frays
He carefully cuts away the frays... and begins His work
taking His needle and thread of a special kind that only He possesses.. He begins to stitch
He has a vision in His mind of what this cloth will look like when it's done
He doesn't stop and continues to stitch
at times.. He must take out a few stitches where the cloth perhaps had a weakness
and begin to stitch again
eyeing the finished product.. He picks it up.. and smiles
the garment is complete.. and now is ready for My use.. My desire.. My pleasure... he says
yes.. He is satisfied...
yet.. she was just a cloth
(an analogy of how i feel right this second..)

The good news is the cloth is very fine material and great in it's worth.
ReplyDeleteThe stains and frays are simply an outward sign of it's use and love. The value has only grown.
