His Masterpiece

I got this poem from a friend of mind and I thought I would share it with you.

My life is but a weaving, between my God and me,
I do not choose the colours, He worketh steadily,
Of times He weaveth sorrow, and I in foolish pride,
Forget He sees the upper, and I the underside.
Not till the loom is silent, and shuttles cease to fly,
Will God unroll the canvas and explain the reason why.
The dark threads are as needful in the skillful Weaver's hand,
As the threads of gold and silver in the pattern He has planned.

I'm with Benjamin. Post again, or I shall quit checking - except maybe every year or so . . . which seems about right.
