A FINISHED WORK

A well-done tapestry is beautiful, but the backside looks like a big mess. The weaver works from the backside and uses mirrors to see his work in progress. Yet, he knows what the final product will look like from the start being the creator. As a child of God here on earth I’m like the helper seated next to the Divine Weaver; I just see a mess. And even when I peek into the mirror of God’s Word I can’t see the finished product, so I must trust The Creator. “For now, we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known,” 2 Corinthians 13:12 (ESV). But in 1 John 3:2 we discover, “Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is” (ESV). LORD, help me keep my eyes on the mirror while doing my part. I put my trust in You and Your finished work.
