The Principal Weaver...
"Mission, like growth,
is a journey into darkness,
It rests on TRUST;
trust that while at times
we may not see a way,
the Holy Spirit has a way,
and will not 'fail in his care'.
It is like viewing a tapestry from behind
a mess of threads.
Only
the principal weaver
has access to the
whole pattern it is making.
Night demands
we rely on His dexterity."
(Excerpt from 'The Impact of God, Soundings from St. John of the Cross)
( Christine de Pisan)

Trusting in darkness. It makes me think of how I wander through our house at night without turning on a light. I "trust" the way I'm going because I know it so well. When we know God..we can trust Him to lead us through all our darknesses!
