What you are is God's gift to you; what you do with yourself is your gift to God. Danish proverb. <-- I want to know what that is in Danish! In all my years there I have never heard of this one before, and my ex's father was a devout Christian. I like that saying though, very profound

In whatever language, those are wise words, and I think advice that I feel I'm following everytime I make something of beauty for a gift. You are honoring God's gift to you everytime you make another prayer Shawl. Blessings to you, my friend.

*blushes* Thanks Jill ^_^.I will be honest, for a while I wasn't sure if I was doing the shawls because God put it on my heart to make them, or because I wanted to do it for my own reasons. After reading the Purpose Driven Life, I figured out that it's because God wants me to do that. I'm sure he'll have other things for me to do at other times, but for now, this is what I'm supposed to be doing.
