I see the tapestry of my life from the underside now.  It’s a jumble of threads, random and absurd.  But one day, I”ll see the top.  I will gasp in wonder at its beauty and grace, and declare I wouldn’t change a thing.  Until then, dear God, I lay my disappointment at the foot of the Cross, and trust in the love You showed me there.

In my Savior’s love, amen…..Bill Giovannetti

When I read the above, my thoughts drifted back to a time when my mother was alive & if i had any difficulties I always sought out my mother’s advice.  She had two quotes: God is weaving a pattern & you will understand it in the great bye & bye & there is a silver lining in every gray cloud.  Did I want to hear that wisdom….no.  I wanted to hear everything will be okay in an hour – not when I die.  Immediacy – hurry & get me through whatever was bothering me.  Funny I don’t even remember many of the difficulties; Mamma was right there was a silver lining in every gray cloud.  God’s timing not mine.
