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