“And all the women that were wise hearted did spin with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine linen. And all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goats’ hair” (Exodus 35:25-26).
The women of Exodus in today’s verses remind me of the time when women would get together and quilt. I never participated in that, but, I can imagine it was a great time of work and fellowship. The women in our verses had the honor of using their skills for the work of the Tabernacle. Neither of these tasks were just a bunch of women getting together for gossip or for a good time. There was a purpose in their meeting together. It was a means of using their skills for God’s service. Sometimes we may feel we don’t have much to offer God, but “little is much if God is in it.” God blesses whatever we give to Him. Give and do your best for the Master. The women of Exodus did just that.
