We Are the Potters Clay

In the hands of the Potter we are formed
 Molded and shaped by his skilled hands

We are turned into vessels he can use
Some are ornate some are plain
 But God uses each one to achieve his plan

To God each one is radiant
Beautiful and special

Strategically placed throughout
Creation to fulfill God's purpose
To complete his plan for us

As God's hand made vessels
 We fill a need
Whether it's sharing the gospel
Or helping the poor
Encouraging the downhearted
Or just planting seeds

 In the hands of the potter 
 We are molded and shaped
Not to set on the shelf
Or in some grand showcase

But to go into the world
 And share with others 
 his love and his grace

He is an Omniscient, All-Powerful God who can use an unbelieving Pharoah along with Moses, a donkey and Balaam, even a worm and a vine (Jonah) to accomplish His purposes. I stand amazed to consider that day when we will stand in account for what we have done with what He has given us. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us today, Edward.
