Weekly inspiration for 22-28 October 2022
A branch had fallen, perfectly,
To form, art, another tree.
From leaves of Autumn in every hue,
Came a message, shining through.
Our lives reach out with life and breath,
But then one day, comes the brush of death.
Yet God is always working,
His mastery,
His artistry;
Into every soul He’s weaving,
A tapestry.
If we will lift our arms in praise,
He will transform us,
For all of our days,
Until we bear the image of His Son.
Upon a background of leaves, a simple branch lay, to form an artful tree. Upon a background of our lives, God weaves our circumstances—trials, joys, desert times and times of harvest—from cradle to grave, with the hope we will give Him our hearts. And when we do, with praises too, He will shine from us, like the jewels that fall in Autumn.
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 NIV
Each soul must choose, whether it will be a canvas to display God’s Spirit, as art. For we are but branches, clinging to the Vine that gives us life. Lord, may Your tapestry in us, color the world with Your beauty and grace. Amen.
