"Remember now thy Creator
in the days of thy youth, while the evil
days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when
thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;"
Ecclesiastes 12:1
We all need to
pause occasionally to fully and completely
recognize that we were made by God.
This is what Solomon reminds us of in
Ecclesiastes. David also captures this
reality in Psalm 139:13-16. Every part
of the fabric of your personhood was
carefully knit together by God's creative
hands. There was no part of who we are
that was hidden from Him. There were
no accidents, no glitches, no thoughtless
moments. Just like David, we were also
"fearfully and wonderfully" made.
The color of your eyes, the shape of
your body, your intellectual and physical
gifts, your hair, your voice, your
personality, the color of your skin, the
size of your feet - everything! All of
your hardwiring is the result of God's
glorious creative ability. And for
this, let us worship God, our Creator and
remember that we exist through Him. As
creator, He alone is the giver of life.
True life cannot be found outside Him - the
One who is our Creator and our Sustainer,
our constant life source and incessant
provider of everything we need.

"Then the
word of the Lord came to me, 'Oh, house of
Israel cannot I do with you as this potter
has done?' declares the Lord. 'Behold,
like the clay in the potter's hand, so are
you in my hand, O, house of Israel.'"
Jeremiah 18:6
This imagery of
the potter and clay is well known in the
Bible. It is a reminder to us today of
what it means to trust in God and what it
means to walk with God. It means to
humble ourselves as clay in the hand of a
potter. God, our creator who formed
and fashioned us in the first place, who
desires to continually form and fashion you
and me according to His wisdom for the
accomplishment of His good will in our
lives. For us to arise every morning
and say, "Here I am, God. I am clay.
You are the potter. Mold me.
Make me. Do whatever you desire to do
in my life, through my life, for the
accomplishment of your purposes in my life.
I totally trust in you."
Do you
totally trust the Lord? You can.
Maybe you need to pray: "God, please
help us to be malleable and moldable, humble
and contrite in your hands, willing to be
formd however you desire according to your
word and your spirit for your glory.
God, we want to be clay that brings honor to
you. We want to be exactly who you are
creating us to be."
