IN THE POTTER'S HAND
Sirach 33:13
All His ways are according to His good pleasure.
Like clay in a potter's hand,
Thus men are in the hand of Him who made them,
To render to them according to His judgment.
Encouraging Words
God is all-powerful. He holds all of creation in the palm of His hand, including each and every one of us. He is all knowing, past present and future. As the gifted Potter, God holds each one of us in His hand like a lump of clay and molds us and makes us into that which we are to become. And yet, He still allows us to exercise our free will, all the while adapting His artistic work in our lives. This is the encouraging thing. He desires so much more for us than even we do and yet He is willing to let us be free to make our own choices. My prayer is that He gives me what I need to choose to yield to His Potter's hands. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have Mercy on me, the sinner!
