“My life is but a weaving between my God and me.
I cannot choose the colors he weaveth steadily.
Oft’ times He weaveth sorrow;
And I in foolish pride forget He sees the upper and I the underside.
Not ’til the loom is silent and the shuttles cease to fly
Will God unroll the canvas and reveal the reason why.
The dark threads are as needful in the weaver’s skillful hand
As the threads of gold and silver in the pattern He has planned
He knows, He loves, He cares; nothing this truth can dim.
He gives the very best to those who leave the choice to Him.”

"Behind all the events and human plans recounted in the story of Joseph lies the unchanging plan of God. Through his dealings with the patriarchs and Joseph, God had continued to bring about his good plan. He had remained faithful to his purposes, and it is the point of this narrative to show that his people can continue to trust him and to believe that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” - John Sailhamer Pastor Stephen
