"Patchwork quilts are made from various material and many times made from scraps of material that were used to make a dress or shirt or some other article in the past. These patchwork quilts can be great reminders to family members of good times or some joyous and wonderful event that took place, as they view a patch in the quilt that they recognize.
On the other hand, if one patch were to remind a person of something devastating that had happened in the past, the quilt would quickly and gladly be tossed away. It wouldn't matter if all the other patches were of good memories. Just one patch sew in the quilt reminding them of the bad one, would cause them to dislike the whole quilt and find the whole thing flawed. It wouldn't be kept at all by the one that could see the patch with the bad attached to it."
I saw two hands slowly removing stitches from a patch that had been sewn in a quilt.
He spoke again,
"It is time to remove the things that offend and cause the whole quilt to be rendered worthless. It is time to began to remove each stitch that placed it there. Many of my people's memories of their own failures or of what has happened to them in the past, has marred the whole vessel. Take it out! Remove the old thing! No need to cast it all away because of one offense. Remove the offensive patch! Cast it away! CUT IT OFF! I will replace this that is left with new things, as the old patch is torn away.
I remind you that you are required to simply believe. It is "from the heart that one believes unto salvation". I look at the heart and not on what you have done or not done.
I warn you not to become as Scribes and Pharisees, reminding brothers and sisters of every flaw in their character, and "making heavy burdens that no one is able to bear". It is time to come up to the front and come up to bat. It is time, but you cannot approach me with these things in your heart. You must see and comprehend that it is from the heart that you must believe. It is from the heart that you must love and from the heart that you will be judged and not what you have done, said or will do or say in the future. "Love covers a multitude of sin", not what you do or don't do. I judge the heart!
Spend your time showing My love and guard your hearts from judging others. Spend your days sewing good things and from those you will reap great reward. Point to Me and don't point your finger anymore at others or at any other place but toward ME!" - Cyndee Pillow (what an awesome name!)
Prophecy or not, it helped to read that.
