Praise our God
Although the threads of my life have often seemed knotted, I know, by faith, that on the other side of the embroidery…
There is a Crown.
Note: Corrie ten Boom would often preach a sermon on God's faithfulness. We cannot see what He sees. He is always working for our good and His glory. We must resolve to trust God's perspective. She used this cloth illustration while she gave the sermon; turning it to the clear side at the sermon's conclusion. This embroidered clothe hangs at the Corrie ten Boom Museum in Haarlem, Holland.
"'For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,' says the Lord. 'For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.'"
—Isaiah 55:8-9
"And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away."
—1 Peter 5:4
