I've never been one for knitting, but I've seen others knit before, and from my vantage point, the process always involves a large ball of yarn that can be messy and isn't always clear exactly what it's going to turn out to be. There's a process, often a long one, of transforming the yarn into the knitted object.
In the same way, God is knitting our hearts together in love. It isn't always an easy process, and it often isn't clear exactly where we are in the process, and sometimes we're uncertain of the exact outcome -- but that doesn't mean that God isn't at work. We are reaching the riches of full assurance, but we're not there yet, and so we continue to let God work in us, through us, patiently waiting for the day when the wonders of the mystery will be revealed to us.
