Soul Mender

“Stitching projects have been saving my sanity lately. I’ve been using a messy combination of sashiko mending techniques and simple embroidery stitches. When my hands are busy, my soul is able to process and slow down enough to allow the Lord to mend it. My weary soul has been drinking in the Passion Translation, so I thought I’d make some little digital quilts with the verses that have been bringing me life lately. Jesus is the ultimate soul-mender. He uses all of the bits and pieces of our lives for His glory. Sometimes He cuts things out, sometimes moves them around, adds a little dash of grace here, or a scrap of peace, and stitches our souls together with His unending patience and love.“ -Brianna Showalter
