Pliable

The Lord has the potter’s prerogative. If we are not turning out as he intended, he reserves the right to crush us and start again (Jer 18:3). Our response is to remain pliable, yielded to the potter’s hand. Then we can be re-used, fashioned again for service in the kingdom. If we harden our hearts and our lives become brittle we will be shattered. It is better to fall upon the rock than to have the rock fall on you (Mat 21:44). Starting over takes faith. We must be willing to abandon those things and ways that have gained our trust and rely completely on the Lord. Are you willing to start over? We hold this treasure in earthen vessels (2Co 4:7).
