A kilim and prayer for Iran
I was in California for my niece’s wedding. While we were at the house, an Iranian neighbor asked for our help turning a large rug she was drying on her garden wall. We struck up a conversation about this beautiful Persian rug and her homeland of Iran. She mentioned she had two rugs for sale, and I decided to purchase the kilim from her.
The conversation was very helpful in light of the worrisome press coverage about Iran and the threat of nuclear proliferation. I’ve never traveled to Iran, but I know and pray to see that the perfection of God, good, is being expressed there right now. I also pray to know that there is no separation by culture, religion, or politics that can thwart the love of God.
