Hello everyone...
I cannot believe but today marks less than 2 months till I return home. This ride has been an adventure to say the very least but the best part is that it's not over yet. I praise God for the things to come.
We just spent this last week on outreach in a town called Sindo. It was a wonderful week of preaching and teaching, playing with kids and hospital visits. I was very privliged to get to speak Sunday morning.
I preached from Jeremiah 18 about when Jeremiah went to the potters house and waited for the word of the Lord. I spoke how we are the clay pots and God is out potter. He see's us when we are old with cracks and dirt all over us. Where the world see's imperfection and filth. Something that should just be thrown away and you should buy a new one. God see's our potential, he see's beauty and worth. He wants us to sit at his potter's wheel and mold us and rebuild us in his image. We see the cracks and try to pick up "clay" meaning we turn to the world to fix our problems or escape from our problems. But that "clay" never works. It never fixes anything and it can only hide our cracks not truly fix and remove them. But God is the maker of all things. He is our potter behind the wheel, he will never throw us away he wants to make us into the masterpiece he planned for us sense the begining of time. So sit at his wheel let he make you and shape you. Let him not hide your cracks but completly remove them and fill them in with his love and grace.
The Holy Spirit was definantly with me while I was speaking, it was a wow moment for me and God to see him use me in that way. I feel like the people understood and they were getting what I was saying. At the end I challenged them to pray in the next week and find out which ways they are trying to pick up clay and fix their own cracks. I am also praying about this and I want to challenge you to do the same.
God loves you and he see's every scratch, dent and dust on you. He loves you through it all and he is waiting for you to sit at his potter's wheel completely humbled and let him make you into his image.
God Bless and I will see you soon.....
LOVE
