Isn't it amazing how quickly people want to disregard you once have become damaged in life ...but thank God because God is NOT like mankind and He understands me. So my brokenness may seem to be ugly to you but my daddy God knows how to make me beautiful in His own time. Every time that I get a vision of the clay in the potter's hands or myself in the hands of God and He how picks up the broken pieces for use in making clay it makes want to cry ...now it takes a person that has been through that painful process in their own life, to understand the beauty of broken pieces being useful to God and becoming whole again through a process called pottery. It hurts when your being broken but it is your brokenness that prepares you as clay , it hurts when your are on God's wheel, when your life spinning seemingly out control and your no longer the authority in your life, but the potter who has you best interest at heart even though the process is so hard that it's painful at the time. The loving potter whose vision is make you into something beautiful fit for the Master's service. See when people count you out because see some damage they don't understand the process or your purpose, the possibly of my usefulness to God and redemption in spite of me being currently in the midst of a mess. It's a miracle in the mess!!!!
Jeremiah 18:1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord:
2“Go down to the potter’s house, and there I will give you my message.”
3 So I went down to the potter’s house, and I saw him working at the wheel.
4 But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him.
5 Then the word of the Lord came to me.
6 He said, “Can I not do with you, Israel, as this potter does?” declares the Lord. “Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, Israel
