We Are The Clay, And You Our Potter

Imagine a beautiful china tea cup saying:
“I wasn’t always like this, there was a time when I was just a cold, hard lump of clay. One day the potter picked me up and said, “I could do something with this”. Then he started to put pressure on me and change my shape. I said, “What are you doing? That hurts, stop!” but he said, “Not yet.” Then he put me on a wheel and began to spin me around and around until I shouted, “let me off.” He replied, “Not yet.” Then he shaped me into a cup and put me in a hot oven. I cried, “Let me out of here, I’m suffocating.” But he looked at me and said, not yet.” When he took me out, I thought his work on me was over, but then he started to paint me. I couldn’t believe what he did next. He put me back into the oven, and I said, “I can’t stand this, please let me out!” but he said “Not yet.”
Finally he took me out of the oven and set me on a shelf where I thought he had forgotten me. Then one day he took me off the shelf and held me up before a mirror. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I had become a beautiful teacup that everyone wants to buy.”
There are things going on in your life today that you don’t understand. When you finally get to the place God want you to be, you’ll realize that He has been making you into a vessel He can use, bless and use to bless others.
So allow God to shape you! By allowing JESUS access in your life John 3.16
