Laura S. read from Psalm 139:13-16 and spoke about how God is knitter, weaver and maker of raw materials. Laura also reflected about the laminated layers of our identity. Croissants are made of laminated dough, which is butter folded and folded into dough making thin layers for a delicate and flaky pastry. The butter can not be removed, but is integrated into the croissant and an essential part of its tastiness. This was not just a metaphoric discussion about food. She also passed around croissants for everyone to taste and savor! Her queries were: What has been laminated into your identity, whether you like it or not? How have you seen God use that in your life, relationships, and ministry?
