Lace

How beautiful you are, my darling! Oh, how beautiful! Your eyes behind your veil are doves. Your hair is like a flock of goats descending from the hills of Gilead. Song Of Solomon 4:1 
What? Why would I put something down like this when i need to find something with Lace? Because I then found this quote.
It is difficult to see why lace should be so expensive; it is mostly holes. Mary Wilson Little
This is a good thought. Why is it so costly? When you can see through it and it's holes. I'll give you the answer. Because it takes FOREVER to do by hand. First you have to have the right amount of silk, or thread. Then you have to have A LOT of wooden bobbins with strings attached. Then you weave. It's such an art. It takes patience and a memory like a elephant and you get something you wouldn't believe


But you get something so beautiful. Then don't forget the process it takes. It's thin, may start out little but ends up beautiful! 

Jesus took each one of those wooden bobbins and made you. He made you beautiful. Maybe with holes, but you are expensive and beautiful. Again, with faults and with holes, you may be small or big, or you can be sewn into a more beautiful piece that you didn't even know of. 
So how do you build up people with one of those bobbin pins one at a time?
What kind of beautiful lace are you?
what holes do you have that make you beautiful?
