The Potter

No, I'm not posting about the "Harry Potter" (even though I might when I finish the last book), I'm posting about how God is the potter and we are the clay. I love that imagery.

This morning I read this out of Jeremiah. It's a great reminder about who God is and who we are. I think we need to be reminded of this often because we often forget.

So many times we try and shape and form ourselves instead of resting in the arms of and submitting to the will of the potter God. God has a plan for us to be used for his purposes. But, so often, our grandiose plans for how we can best benefit God get in the way of his amazing plans for us.

Today, may you submit to the shaping of the potter God.
