If we are willing to be molded by His hands, the Lord will shower us, our men, and our relationships with abundance. That is the way He works.
~~Shaunti Feldhahn
This morning’s prayer and meditation for Sally’s healing comes from Take Heart, Oh God: Riches from the Greatest Christian Women Writers of All Time.
When a plotter picks up his clay, it’s usually a stiff, cold, shapeless block. It takes patience and strong hands to soften the clay before it can be molded. During this time, the artists gets to delight in the process of creation and dream about his finished product.
Picture our heavenly Father, with his strong hands, desiring to shape you for his glory, for your benefit, and for others’ blessings. How much patience will he need to make you pliable? How resistant are you to changing shape? Are you willing to take on the shape he has in mind for you, or are you set on a shape of your own? As Shaunti Feldhahn reminds us, God wants to mold us. When we are willing to let him shape our lives, he showers us with his abundance.
God is molding and shaping you. Will you let him be your Sacred Sculptor?
Prayer for Meditation
Sacred Sculptor, mold me. May I be pliable in your hands.
Scripture for Meditation
But who are you, a human being, to talk back to God? “Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?’” Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for common use? Romans 9:20-21
Music for Meditation
