A thought from George Ford
‘Yet you, Lord, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.’
Isaiah 64:8
Reflection
God is our personal creator. Continuing to reform and reshape us in His likeness no matter how wayward or disobedient we might have been. Through our individual father-child relationship with Him, He, in His unending love, will guide, discipline, and develop us in His ways – through our prayers and the reading of His word the bible, forgiving us when we are truly sorry, and strengthening our new resolve with His Spirit. May we His children know God the Potter’s loving guiding hands today.
Prayer
Heavenly Father loving Creator and sustainer of all you have made. Forgive our foolish and wayward ways. May we with child-like trust converse with you in prayer, read your word, know your love and teaching in our hearts, and strengthen by you Spirit be reshaped into your likeness through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord and Saviour. Amen
