Pick Up the Shuttle that is Christ
You sit at a loom where the multi-colored threads of your life stretch out in front of you – some are colorful, some may be dark, some may even be laced with tiny gold threads woven in with the cotton or the wool. Pick up Christ the Shuttle, wound with the threads of His Love. Draw Him through all the threads of your day.
Before Each Task
As you begin a task, do your best to pick up the Shuttle and weave Christ into what you do and say. Let Christ help you create a tapestry of beauty and strength that is patterned with his peace. With Christ as your Shuttle, He will join the threads together into a unified whole.
A Prayer for Weaving Christ Into Your Life
Weave my life together, O Christ.
Weave the threads of your grace
into mine.
Weave my life into you.
Weave my life together, O Christ
with you, for you.
Weave my life together
until we become a tapestry of
beauty and strength for all.
Weave my life together, O Christ;
Weave the weft of your grace
into my day.
Weave my life into yours, Dear One,
to be with you, to live for you.
I release the threads of my life to you
so we are
together
a tapestry of
beauty and strength.
