"Faith is the seamstress who mends our torn belief who sews the hem of childhood trust and clips the threads of grief." Joan Walsh Anglund A seamstress takes large pieces of material and cuts them to size. Then, with the help of needle and thread and buttons, she goes to work to create a finished piece. Sometimes, in the beginning, it is hard to imagine a finished product. But the seamstress believes it is possible and goes to work on it. Faith is like a seamstress. Faith is what can pull all the unfinished pieces of life into some sort of order. Faith is what lets us know we are all right even when life doesn't seem to make sense. We all need the faith to believe our skills and dreams, and even our heartaches can be sewn into a shape that is beautiful and useful. Our faith is the seamstress who guides the needle, mends the tearts, and helps create a shape and meaning to our lives. How an I show my faith today?
