No one likes to have her faults pointed out. Speaking the truth in love can still be painful. And, at times, I know that we reach the end of the month and the Common Threads are the last thing you want to reflect on, because it serves as a spiritual mirror and reminder of our shortcomings.
However, today, I want you to look at the Common Threads in a new way. Let’s find joy in the ways in which God has helped us grow and bloom. Take a moment to thank God for the thorns he is removing. And rejoice in the fact that he places other women in our lives that can serve as iron sharpening iron, encouraging and inspiring us to be as beautiful as a rose in spite of a few thorns.
I rejoice with you in the transformation God is bringing about in your lives, as reflected in the Common Threads. Thanks for taking this moment to rejoice with me as well.
