God knitting...

I love to knit... that's not a shock to you all! Even if you are a new reader, you can tell just from my title that knitting is a part of my life.

I usually have 5-6 projects on needles at any given time. I have a project usually in my car, a few at the house, a couple at my desk, & even try to keep a project tucked in my purse so if ever I have to sit in traffic, its the most productive time killer....

One thing I've noticed - no matter where I am at - whether in the beauty shop, sitting in my office, being out on a bench waiting for a seat at a restaurant, someone will ask me "What are you making?".... their interest is peaked in what the few rows of yarn will turn out to be...

Now, I know what I'm going to make... I can visualize it in my mind - see what its going to look like - & in the end, it may have turned out a little different, taken a unique style of its own, but its what I created & knew what it was going to be...

I thought of Psalm 139:13

"For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother's womb"

Can you imagine God creating us? Did the angels ask him "What are you making?"... & did God have that gleam in his eyes to say "I know exactly how this is going to turn out.. this is My creation that is fearfully & wonderfully made"....

How exciting to start each project I knit... how exciting to see the finished result.....How God must be so proud of His finished products!

  1. Very good reminder that even if we aren't perfect, God still brags about us (at least I hope he does!).

    I too have many knitting projects going at once. Not as many as you but at least three.

  9. I'm sure he probably had a difficult time trying to explain us.

    I am buying a book at Walmart to teach me how to knit.
