Part of the Whole

 

"Each small task of everyday is part of the total harmony of the universe." 
~ St. Theresa of Lisieux

                                              Theresa would have understood those words better than most

She came from a family of French lace makers

Not the lace that is driven out by machine by the yard

 But Alencon lace

Where each stitch told a story

 and was part of the whole

Lace that was the product of body, mind and spirit, reflecting nature

Tiny, tiny threads that joined together

 

to become part of life

and love

and whimsy

Today, each  thread you join to the universe-

 no matter how small you think it is- will help to make the pattern

"Lace is as much about the space between the threads 

                                as it is about the threads themselves."Lori Howe

And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28
