From a lump of clay, to a life that is used every day, Jesus is molding us for His use.
Psalm 40:2, He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
Recently, my wife, some friends, and I went to Pigeon Forge, Tn. While we were there, we did a little shopping. One of the stores we went into not only sold pottery but they sculpted, painted, and fired it right on sight. It was amazing to see that potter grab a lump of clay, throw it on the wheel, lay his hands upon it, and make the cup he had been trained to make. If something didn’t look or feel right, the potter would start over or he would remove part of the clay and continue on until the piece was finished.
Friend, I don’t know what you’re going through but if you’re one of Jesus’s children, He is molding you into what He wants you to be. Every once and a while He may have to remove some stuff in your life. You may even hit rock bottom and have to learn somethings again you didn’t learn the first time you heard them. But He is still working on you because you are one of His Children!
