Good morning ladies,
The word of the day is “atelier.” I have never really been very good at
art. I think I took a couple of classes
when I was in college, but really just wanted to do my best to get through. It’s not that I did not like it, or did not
try. I just was genuinely bad at
it. I really wish that I was able to
paint, draw, or sculpt something really cool.
Maybe someday I will muster up enough courage to test those artistic
skills. This reminds me of God’s role as
the master sculptor of our lives.
“But as for you, O LORD, you are our Father; and we are
clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hands.” ~Is. 64:8
My question is: are you allowing God to shape your
life? It sounds like a pretty simple question,
but I think the answer is a bit more complicated. What a great analogy this is. Sometimes I wonder if I trust God enough to
shape and mold me, or if I fight him to be the potter of my own life. My prayer is that you give God control of
your life. Whether your thoughts,
actions, or desires of your heart, let them be pointed towards God and allow
him to shape you into everything he knows you can be. We are the clay, He is
the potter, and this life is his atelier with which to work.
Praying for you,
