A minister shared his story: ‘At home I have a silk bookmark,’ he said, ‘given to me by my mother. When I examine the wrong side I see nothing but a tangle of threads… it looks like a big mistake. One would think someone had done it who didn’t know what they were doing. But when I turn it over and look at the right side I see beautifully embroidered, the words ‘GOD IS LOVE’. Often we look at challenges and suffering from the wrong side but one day we shall see it from another standpoint and then we shall understand.’
