When my only child was born, Mavis presented us with a beautiful knitted baby blanket- a Joseph coat of many colors. It is beautiful and my words cannot describe it. You will have to close your eyes and ask the Lord to let you see this garment that was used to shelter and glorify our baby. It took much time to make a blanket of this size. I can see her knitting and speaking to the Lord. The Lord would say to her "Put this color there. It means this." As we are special blankets knitted by the Lord, each stitch was made with godly thought and with our baby in her heart. As as people were healed by the hem of Jesus garment, Mavis blanket did the same. Such patience does the Lord have when he knits our lives and why- so as Mavis did for us-knit a life into a beautiful blanket. Brethren, Mavis knitted for all of us. She gave us all-a very precious knitted nugget.She will always be sonshine on a bright or cloudy day.
