"But now, O Lord, You are our Father, we are the clay, and You our potter; and all of us are the work of Your hand." -Isaiah 64:8 (NASB)
We recently welcomed a rescue dog into our family. It is hard to tell what he experienced before we adopted him. It is also hard to tell what commands he knows or what and how he was taught. As we get to know our new dog, we are helping him adjust and learn how to behave in our family. We are working with our dog to help him learn our commands.
The Bible uses the example of a potter with clay when describing our relationship with God. We often go astray and need to remember that God has "adopted" us. He is ready to shape us and mold us. He has the tools to make us better people, but we have to allow Him to be part of our lives. Once we learn God's expectations, we can be His beautiful creations, showing His love to all those around us!
God is the potter and ready to mold you. Let Him!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for being willing mold me and make me a beautiful work of Your hands. Help me to listen to You and allow You to complete Your work in me. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
