As I sit here, contemplating my journey through life, I can't help but feel like a lump of clay in the skilled hands of the divine Potter. My Heavenly Father, the ultimate Artisan, molds and shapes me with infinite patience and love.
At times, I feel the gentle pressure of His fingers, smoothing out my rough edges and refining my form. Other moments bring more intense shaping – the trials and challenges that seem to stretch and twist me beyond my limits. Yet, I trust in His vision, knowing that each turn on His potter's wheel serves a greater purpose.
There are days when I resist, my clay stubbornly clinging to its original shape. But the Potter persists, His hands steady and sure, working out the imperfections I can't even see. He knows the masterpiece He intends to create, and His love for me is evident in every careful touch.
Sometimes, the process is uncomfortable. The Potter may need to break me down, add water to soften my hardened parts, or apply heat to strengthen my core. These moments of refinement can be painful, but I emerge more resilient, more beautiful, and more aligned with His divine design.
As I yield to His craftsmanship, I begin to see glimpses of the vessel I'm becoming. Each day brings new contours, new depths, and new possibilities. The Potter’s hands never leave me, constantly guiding, shaping, and perfecting.
In quiet moments, I feel a profound gratitude for being clay in His hands. For though I may not always understand the process, I know that the Potter's love is infused in every touch, every turn, every gentle reshape of my being. And as I continue this journey of transformation, I trust that the finished work will be a testament to His glory – a unique and beautiful creation, perfectly crafted by the Master Potter's hands.
