Stay On The Wheel

God is so committed to His objective in your life that He won’t quit – even though it means allowing you to be crushed and starting the process over again.

He made it again into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter… Jeremiah 18:4

While you are on the Potter’s wheel, consider these two things:
1) The Potter’s plan and pleasure are what matter. He has the right to make you into anything He chooses. What matters most is that His plan for your life be fulfilled and His pleasure in you be realized. Can you imagine a potter discussing with the clay what it would prefer to become? No. only he has the wisdom to make that decision. So instead of struggling with the will of God, rejoice that God is working in you.

2) The Potter will not stop until the job is done. God’s job would be simple if we were just inanimate lumps of clay. But we’re clay animated by self-will and we want what we want when we want it. However, rather than giving in to us, or giving up on us, the Potter keeps working and reworking the clay, day after day, until we gradually begin to take on a shape He can use for His glory.

This sometimes calls for radical action on His part. God is so committed to His objective in your life that He won’t quit – even though it means allowing you to be crushed and starting the process over again. So be patient and stay on the wheel; what God has in mind for you is worth it.

A sickness free life

There is a revelation in Romans 8:11 that God used to liberate me from the grip of sickness. The drug that was given to me during the time of my sickness has the tendency to go to the wrong places, leaving the places with problems, and it will go on to the places without problems.

Look unto Jesus

There is always the tendency for us to get distracted in life. Our eyes will go off course when we are distracted and we lose focus. The Christian life is a walk with Jesus as our focus but the cares of this life and deceitfulness of riches makes us take our eyes off Jesus. We
