Turning mud into a pot is not easy as it seems. It requires practice, focus, time, and a ton of patience.
Similar to setting and achieving goals, pottery is a process. The beginning is the most difficult part but as we hold the clay and deal with the mess, we eventually learn how to shape the pot. At times, it may not be exactly the way we want it to be, but pottery, much like life is imperfect.
In Christian life, we are living in a potter's wheel. We are the clay and God our Creator is the potter. To be a useful pot, God kneads, pushes, presses, and pulls us into shape but he never throws us away no matter how many times we resist. He is relentless in transforming us, making us into a masterpiece with His glorious love.
As we immerse ourselves into our full potential, may we continue to trust our Potter's hands day by day as he completes the process of turning this lump clay into a unique yet beautiful piece of pottery.
