Soulful Sunday: Art Appreciation

(Above image features my Grandma's quilt, which has found a home on my daughters bed) 

Lord,
Sometimes when I look
At my life
It seems like a homespun
Patch-work quilt...
Quaint, but not quite "together"!
There are bits and pieces of
Cloths and colors,
Scraps of material,
The days of my life...

When you began to put together
The days of my life
You must have know
Where each piece would go...
You've told me that I am
Fearfully and wonderfully
Made...
And I believe you, Lord,
I do!
I may not be a velvet tapestry,
But even crazy-quilts
Have purpose,
To give warmth and
Cozy comfort and
Color to a room!

Whatever I am, Lord,
You made me...
Lovingly,
Carefully,
Reverently,
And exactly right!

(Author: Joy Morgan Davis)


Psalm 139:14
"I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made."

  1. Elise's bed looks so sweet with the vintage quilt! Was that Grandma Helen's quilt?

    I miss you!
