The Mosaic of Life

THE MAKING OF SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL

Side note from Livv

The ancient art form of meticulously arranging hundreds of thousands of tiny, colored tiles to create patterns, shapes, or entire scenes, mosaics tell an elaborate story in which every piece is vital to the other.

While an artist is in the middle of the process, you can’t tell what vision an artist has in their mind. Only an artist knows that. While we are in the middle of our lives, in the very center of our mosaics, only the Artist of our lives knows the entire picture. It takes faith and trust that the Artist is in the process of making something beautiful with what we have.

The experiences or ‘‘pieces’’ that accumulate from our journey have a purpose. Every victory, every challenge, every lesson, and heartache is a part of the story. These moments add to the beauty of our intricate mosaics.

The most important part is to keep going. Keep picking up the pieces and behold them, knowing that they are full of purpose. Like with all good and beautiful things, an artist takes their time to craft a masterpiece.
