“But Lord, You are our father. We are like clay, and You are the potter; Your hands made us all.”~~ Isaiah 64:8 God longs for His children to find and live out His mind-blowing plan for our lives—a plan that is far beyond anything we can possibly imagine or conceive on our own. He is more committed to our character than He is to our comfort, godly discipline must often come into play. The only way for us to become all God desires us to be is to remain pliable in the Potter’s hands. When we try to shape ourselves, we fail miserably and often settle for so much less than God has in mind. The Potter wants to create something eternally beautiful. In fact, He wants to make us more like His Son, Jesus! If we could only trust that His shaping is so much better than anything we could ever create! But in our pride, we honestly think we can do better. The world says we should never give up our rights because if we do, we will lose everything. God says if we surrender all to Him, we will gain everything that is eternally important.
