“I once visited a weaver’s school, where the students were making beautiful patterns. I asked, ‘When you make a mistake, must you cut it out and start from the beginning?’
A student said, ‘No. Our teacher is such a great artist that when we make a mistake, he uses it to improve the beauty of the pattern.’
That is what the Lord does with our mistakes. He is the greatest artist, but we must surrender. Surrender your blunders to the Lord. He can use them to make the pattern of your life more beautiful.
Faith came singing into my room,
And other guests took flight.
Grief, anxiety, fear and gloom,
Sped out into the night.
I wondered that such peace could be,
But Faith said gently, ‘Don’t you see
That they can never live with me?’ – Elizabeth Cheney
…thy faith has made thee whole. – Matthew 9:22 KJV
Lord, we can be so depressed when we blunder. It is wonderful to know that our mistakes can be useful to You, because You are our Master Artist.” Corrie ten Bloom quote - October 13th devotional.
