A friend from church wanted a scarf and her young daughter wanted to buy it as a gift for her. So I made one with her in mind. She wasn’t able to purchase it at the time and so I prayed about whether I should just give it to her, but didn’t feel released to do so at that time. A year later, the scarf was still sitting in my prayer closet (aka living room) and I wondered to God why He hadn’t released me to give it to her yet. Continue reading Majestic Praise

A lovely testimony of God’s faithfulness even in tough times:
Hi Meghan, We received some hard news on Thursday. My husband had been laid off because of lack of work. We know that everything is going to be ok because we put all of our trust in God, he is the one in control. Continue reading Comfort (Cleft of the Rock)

Resting in His Glory

Only it turned out she wasn’t at church. I thought I must have missed God. Continue reading Resting in His Glory
Promise of New Life
A friend from work asked me if I could make one for a Christmas present for her sister.
Monday the 27th I lay a blank scarf on the table and put the sister before the Lord, and asked what He would want to say to her. I felt green stalks growing so strongly I ripped the lid off the green dye and instead of rinsing the lid so as not to get dye everywhere I just threw it down and began to let my arm “grow the green stems” on the scarf because I felt like I might burst if I didn’t. Lots of green growth – a feeling of plenty. Not neat and tidy and contained – a lot and fast and furious. Green representing life. Continue reading Promise of New Life
My Beloved
A friend from church asked me to make a scarf for a woman who is a friend of ours at church. The only input she’d given was that she looked good in teal, burnt orange, and rust.
The day I went to make the scarf, I plopped down on my couch, picked up my Bible and asked the Lord what He wanted to say to this woman. Continue reading My Beloved
