Needles in a haystack

 
This quilt was inspired by the Fall landscape in Alberta. The harvested grains and grasses left a pattern of lines and the hay bales were circles scattered around the fields.
 
 
With a new year upon us and all kinds of wishes and resolutions being made I was wondering what that is really all about. Does it come from a sense of inadequacy, or wishful thinking, not being happy with ourselves or our situations?
Aren't we in a sense looking for the needle in the haystack with all of this? Not to diminish the positive results of living healthier and happier, but isn't it better to concentrate on something that we know is true and to notice where God is at work; in our own lives and the world around us?
