Sometimes He weaveth sorrow, Which seemeth strange to me; But I will trust His judgment, And work on faithfully. ‘Tis He who fills the shuttle, He knows just what is best, So I shall weave in earnest And leave with Him the rest. My life is but a weaving Between my God and me; I may choose the colors, He knows what they should be; For He can view the pattern Upon the upper side, While I can see it only On this the underside.
At last, when life is ended, With Him I shall abide, Then I may view the pattern Upon the upper side. Then I shall know the reason Why pain, with joy entwined, Was woven in the fabric Of life, that God designed.

An apples testimony about its Creator ‘I am true to my maker’
B) A Fruitful Life— Life—Phil 1:11
“You tell what a tree is not by the bark it wears but by the fruit it bears.” …It is obviously visible….
The things that happen unto me Are not by chance I know, But because my Father’s wisdom Has willed to have it so. For the ‘furtherance of the gospel’ As a part of His great plan, God can use our disappointments And the weaknesses of man. Give me faith to meet them bravely Trials I do not understand, To let God work His will in me— To trust His guiding hand. Help me to shine, a clear bright light, And not to live in vain— Help me hold forth the Word of Life In triumph over pain.
