Rhythm and order

Rhythm and order. Discipline. With a pattern specifically laid out for God’s people in the Old Testament.

Daily. Weekly. Monthly. Annually. 

With sacrifices. Sacred assemblies. Festivals. 

Divinely-designed schedules. Reminding them to remember. And honor the Lord their God. 

As a people set apart for His glory.

Threads

Colorful skeins of thread surround him. And neutral strings on the loom show no pattern to follow. As far as I can see. 

But the old carpet maker knows. 

Thread by thread. Hour by hour. Day by day. 

He works the loom, creating a rich pattern. A map of threads he already had in mind when he started.
