Hands Of Time Christ with Sheep Now his elder son was

Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house

He delighted in his family and never shirked his responsibilities in the home

My struggle over all that time was to capture these initial emotions and vision

- Luke 15:4-7

Hands Of Time Christ with Sheep Now his elder son wasAs a little girl, I remember my mother and her friends sitting around a quilt while I lay underneath. I would watch their hands cast shadows across the different color swatches, their needles bobbing up and down. I felt safe listening to their laughter float through the room. As a young woman, I waited with anticipation for the time when I would be allowed to take my place at the quilt. I remember my mother patiently showing me how to stitch and tie.
