Tapestry: Best seen upon completion and from a good vantage point

"God's share (in the work of our lives) is like the upper side of those magnificent pieces of tapestry which are woven point by point from the reverse side. The weaver employed on them sees nothing but the point on which she is working and her needle, and these points successively filled make up those magnificent figures which only appear when, at the completion of all the parts, the right side is displayed, although during the time of the work all this marvellous beauty is in obscurity."

From Father J. P. de Caussade,
