| His Perfect Way — Part 1 |
| Standing before his audience, the preacher held up a text formed with silk threads on perforated cardboard. But he held the back of the text toward the people. To them, all that appeared of it was a tangled mass of various colored threads. No words could be made out. The stitches might have been made without reason, and to the onlookers they conveyed no message. |
| The preacher was showing how all God’s dealings with us are the outcome of His deepest care for our blessing and well-being; and that we cannot always see why it is we have to suffer and pass through certain things. “For now we see through a glass, darkly,” but soon we shall see “face to face” (1 Corinthians 13:12). Then it is that the dark places will be made plain, and then, up there, we’ll understand it all. |
| When the preacher turned the text toward his listeners they could read clearly, the words that had been formed with care and beauty: |
| GOD IS LOVE |
| Every thread had helped in the weaving of the message. Not one of them was unnecessary or out of place. |
