TOTD, April 13

God, You Are the Potter

Many people feel that God can't use them because they’re not perfect—this is a lie. God (the Potter) uses cracked pots (that's us) to do His work. As Christians, we are containers that God wants to fill with His goodness and light. Then we’re to carry that goodness and light to a dark world, sharing it with people everywhere we go. Don't be afraid of your flaws; acknowledge them and allow God to use you anyway. Quit worrying about what you're not and give God what you are.
(source: Joyce Meyer’s Article).


An interesting article from Joyce Meyer told us that even we’re cracked pots, He’ll use us in this world.
Sometimes, we’re worried to much of our flaws and we can’t even think that God will use us. We think that we don’t deserve all the honor of serving Him, because we’re not perfect. Because we’re cracked.

But, let us be reminded once more by the verse from Isaiah, that our Father, is the potter. We are the clay and the work of His hand. So, even though how cracked our condition right now, it’s within His knowledge. He knows every single crack that we have and yet He still loves us and not to mention longs for using us to serve Him more and more.
God, You are the Potter. Even in our imperfection, even in our cracked condition, You have the ability to turn whatever that seems bad into goodness. We are only the clay and we trust You. Amen.

Yet, O LORD, you are our Father.
We are the clay, you are the potter;
we are all the work of your hand.
--- Isaiah 64:8
