Intricately Woven

There is a little pond near my apartment that I go to in order to calm down and spend time with God. It is closer than the lake so I tend to go there more often.

Yesterday, I went to the pond and as always, I pass by about 3 different construction areas. I've passed by these construction areas and watched the buildings be built. To put it simply, construction is one of the most messiest but beautiful and intricate things I have ever encountered.

God spoke to me last night as I walked by the construction areas.

Sometimes our lives seem messy but God is intricately weaving everything together for our good. Things may seem out of place or wrong at times, but God is working all things for our good.

In construction, they use all sizes of instruments to get the work done. In the same way, God uses big things in our lives and small things in our lives to speak to us and help us move forward into the plans He has for us. He uses everything our paths to build us up. Nothing is too small or too big to be used by God.

If you ever stop by a construction site, stop and see how beautiful it really is. I have watched an entire building being built by the pond and I am in absolute awe of the work they've done. It is beautiful seeing an idea or concept become reality. It is so cool to watch something come out of nothing. It is wonderful to see the workers work together.
