Shards of Clay
August 11, 2021
Jeremiah 19
"Even so will I break these people and this city, as one breaketh a potter's vessel, that it cannot be made whole again.."
As an artist, I take pieces of broken plates, glasses, and bottles and make jewelry. In Jeremiah, God told the people that he would destroy them and the city, and they would never be whole again. Today, we are those shards of clay, broken and thrown away by society. But God, the Potter, can take them, mold them, and make them into something useful, something beautiful.
God created us to be reflections of Him.
(Jeremiah 18: 1-10) Jeremiah watched the potter with his wheel. When the pot was wrong or had flaws, the potter destroyed it and started again. He took the clay and remolded it, making it perfect, without flaws or defects.
God looks at us with all our flaws and defects and chooses to remold us, not throw us away. Although, we may be as the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32), dead in Christ. But when we turn from our lost ways and return home, God will welcome us as one lost now found.
