Jeremiah 18:2-6
[2]Arise and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause you to hear My words.
[3]Then I went down to the potter's house, and behold, he was working at the wheel.
[4]And the vessel that he was making from clay was spoiled in the hand of the potter; so he made it over, reworking it into another vessel as it seemed good to the potter to make it.
[5]Then the word of the Lord came to me:
[6]O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter does? says the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel.
"The vessel was spoiled in the hand of the potter; so he made it over, reworking it into another vessel as it seemed good to the potter to make it.. "
💫Being marred or spoiled in the potter's hands is one best posture... Though you look destroyed and useless, it is His process of reworking you for better use!
Allow the broken state, allow all the pressure, allow even being disfigured. You can never be a better version of yourself unless you go through that process.
💫The potter knows the best version of you which is suitable for His use and purpose, suitable for His will, the best will for you. Don't journey the second half of the year an old version, or a self imposed version, or a people designed version. You have a maker, humble yourself in His hands as clay, endure the molding wheel, and come out as He desires...
💫Pray for stillness as God reworks you. Don't pop out of the frying pan before done. A loaf of barley bread that the enemy saw symbolizing Gideon had endured all the processes... And in the dream it was tumbling down tents of the enemy, yet remaining intact. Love the process, and be perfected and polished for the July to December journey.
