The Potter & the Vessel
God
is our Potter, we are his clay: It's like Playdoh,
God is constantly working us like clay in his hand.
As he works the clay, the oil (Holy Spirit) is softening the clay
to make it more workable. As he works this clay, He reveals
stones in our lives that are hindering his work. He needs our
willingness to allow him to remove these stones ( He gave all of
us a choice & He cannot go back on His Word.)
As long as We are allowing him the freedom to work us We are
staying Supple & Moldable. If we are not willing to let him
work us then He is forced to lay it aside and as Clay will harden
when Exposed to air, We will harden when exposed to the World.
Eph
2:10
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good
works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in
them.
Song:
The Potter saw a vessel,
That had been broken by the wind and the rain.
And he sought with so much compassion
To make it over again.
Now I was that vessel,
That no one thought was good.
He Said I am the Potter
And thou are the Clay,
I'll make you over again today.
