The red thread…

Unnoticeable, it weaves its way throughout our life.

Sometimes, often rarely, we get the privilege of seeing how it’s connected.

Leading bingo, of all things, to my beautiful souls today, for the first time, I was reminded of a time when I was on the other side.

Many years ago, every Friday, for over a year, I brought my children to bingo at a nursing home.

It wasn’t always easy, having two school-aged homeschooled children and baby in tow, but ‘something’ always propelled me.

As adults now, my children speak of this time as a treasured memory-hopefully having learned things of compassion, first and foremost, and many other life lessons as well. I will never fully know, but He does.

(Also, I’m not saying this to guilt any parents, this is simply my story!)

So today, as I was on the other side of it, leading bingo, with a mic, no less, I was amazed at how God planted this desire in my heart and brought it full circle!

Yet, I had to be ready, I had to be taught, I had lessons to learn. I had experiences and people to encounter, before I could do this well.

Emphatically, it was a giant billboard reminder to me, that He has all things predestined and all things in His hands.

We can trust Him…

He will be faithful, despite our small minds and futile attempts at what we think our lives should be or look like.

I’ve never been more thankful and hope that I can continue to see the red thread throughout my life in many other ways!

Keep your eyes wide open to the thread! It is there, I promise, eventually you will see it, if you haven’t already! ❤️
