We Are The Clay ~

The clay cannot tell,
the Potter what to do
if it’s to be made . . .
into something new.

For, it is full of lumps,
scarred and marred places
and it needs His grace
to fill in all the spaces.

The clay cannot say,
to the Potter do this
it needs to be pliable
or blessings it will miss.

For, it is full of cracks,
fissures and large gaps
and it needs His mercy
to bind up all the scraps.

The clay cannot tell,
the Potter what to do
it must remain pliant . . .
until He’s good and through!

~~~~~~~~

Jeremiah 18:1-4

“And the vessel that he made
of clay was marred in the hand
of the potter: so he made it
again another vessel,
as seemed good to the
potter to make it.”
