This week's scripture comes from the prophet Jeremiah, the 18th chapter. In it, Jeremiah is sent by God to the local potter's shop. God's message to the people emerges from what Jeremiah sees and hears that day. It's a timeless story, and one that speaks to us today.
Tomorrow's message is about how we are formed, how raw clay, pressure, and water can be made into something that is durable and able to be filled. But, here's something else to think about: If in the forming of the clay the pressure of the outside hand overpowers the pressure of the inside hand while the raw clay spins on the wheel, the clay will quickly rise, and then collapse. This leaving the potter with no choice but to start over.
The good news is that our God, our potter, our creator, isn't afraid to start over. For many of us, our final shape comes from our needing to be remade...and then having to be remade yet again...
