Who was the unkind person that labeled all of us careful planners as “control freaks?” It can be so unsettling when we realize that life is way beyond our ability to control. But it doesn’t have to be.
“The pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him…Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand.” Jeremiah 18:4,6
Most of us have a few scrapes and bruises from trying to do life on our own. But God graciously picks us up and lovingly, intentionally reshapes us. We lose control over our lives. But we gain the wisdom and care of the master potter. Can you dare to take a deep breath today and give complete control of your life to God? You can trust Him. He loves you and He wants to lovingly make something beautiful out of your life. – Sandi
