The Potter

The Potter

Events will take place in your life
and cannot be diminished.
Your life as you now know it here
isn’t quite yet finished.

We all have our turn in life
upon the POTTERS wheel.
When we come to understand
that our GOD is real.

Your life may seem to be a mass
of many broken pieces.
GOD will rearrange the pile
when your resistance ceases.

GOD will gather all the fragments
to see that none is wasted.
You must submit to HIM in truth
the trials that you have tasted.

Many of us make mistakes…
and our lives become a mess.
It becomes a daily struggle
just to deal with all the stress.

We wonder, is there no way out?
Do we have what it takes?
Stop pondering on how you failed
and all of your mistakes.

GOD HIMSELF selects each vessel
and determines final shape.
You must yield yourself to HIM;
don’t look for an escape.

Trust your GOD to finalize
your final form when done.
No one else can help with this,
HE is the only ONE.

So when life seems to overwhelm…
and you search for what is real,
Just hold on tight while life spins on…
it’s your turn on the wheel.

The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words.

Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.

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.

Jeremiah 18:1-4

 

But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.

Isaiah 64:8
