NEWBOLD BAPTIST CHURCH WEB SITE Milnrow Road, Rochdale, United Kingdom

"THE MASTER WEAVER" The pattern of our lives is formed With tender loving care And He who does the weaving Works in colours dark and fair. We see odd strands of colour As the tapestry unfolds, Mot understanding why there must be Greys among the gold's. But in the Master Weaver's eye The whole design is clear For He alone knows why and when The dark threads must appear - And if we trust His guiding hand Then one day we shall see The final picture woven In a perfect tapestry. When my late wife, Jean, was very ill with a terminal illness, "Huntingdon's Chorea", and life was very difficult for all the family a Christian friend sent me an Easter card containing the above poem, "The Master Weaver. This meant much to Jean and I that Easter, as it re-assured us of what we already believed about God and His purposes for our lives. You may be in a situation that is equally devastating. Life just does not make sense to you! Why not invite God (The Master Weaver) into your situation? Without Him we wouldn't have made it through. It was His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, who died on the Cross to pay the penalty of our sin and to deal with all the pain and trials of living. He also rose again so that in Him we might have both abundant life now and eternal life to come. Jean went blissfully into His eternal presence, while I have an on-going relationship with Him. Do bring your situation to Him . He will never fail you!   Testimony by Mike Winch     Return to   Home page  ?
