God's Patterns
by Marina Layton
January 19, 2012
 The
book of Exodus has so much fascinating information
regarding God's intent on how we should live ... from
God's laws to instructions on how to build the
Tabernacle in which He would dwell among His people. I
enjoy making quilts and doing hand embroidery projects
to give to my children and grandchildren. In Exodus
36-39, we find Bezalel working and leading craftsmen in
the building of the Ark of he Covenant, including
curtains with embroidery. What a privilege he was given!
God was very specific as to the pattern (directions)
that he should follow, paying attention to small details
and using the finest of materials.
In reading this portion of scripture and studying it,
the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said, "You know, Marina,
I have a plan (pattern) as to how your life should be
woven and embroidered. There are times you strayed from
my instructions and desires for you. Your life can be as
beautiful as the curtains in the Ark of the Covenant if
you would only listen and follow My directions. Those
holes you made in your fabric of life have been mended
and have disappeared when you asked me to be your Savior
and to forgive your sins; however, you need to follow My
pattern for your life from now on. Just don't make-up
your own pattern; I created you, and because I did, My
pattern is ever so much better!" How do I know His
pattern? By seeking Him: being in His Word, taking time
to study, journal, pray, listen, and obey what He tells
me!
As we move through 2012, let's remember the importance
of taking time to be alone with God and in fellowship
with Him. Then, we know His design (pattern) for us. He
is always available, are you?
