I don’t knit.
My sister tried to teach me when we were kids.
It wasn’t pretty.
My wife knits.
My daughters too.
Not me.
But you know who else does?
God.
Only while people knit scarves and such, God knits hearts.
Maybe if we pay attention, that could explain some things.
Like why you suddenly find your life being intertwined with someone else’s.
Somebody you may not have chosen.
But somehow you got looped and picked and pulled and stitched together.
It ain’t always pleasant, but it’s always in love when God does the knitting.
Pay attention.
This matters…
Greatly.
… that their hearts may be encouraged, having been knit together in love… (Colossians 2:2).
