God's Plan
A potter is a person who uses clay to make things like jars and dishes. One of my favourite hymns says that we are like clay and God is like a potter. God wants us to let Him mould us to fit the plan He has for our lives.
The writer of Psalm 25 asks God to guide and teach him. “Show me how you want me to live” (verse 4b).
We need to learn God’s truth and know that our salvation comes from Him. But sometimes we want to tell God how we should live our lives. Instead, we should ask Him to show us His will. Then He will lead us and give us His blessings.
Often we are stubborn and we don’t follow God’s plan. But God will not leave us. He is patient and loving. He waits for us to learn from our mistakes and to know that His ways are better than our own.
Ask God to forgive you and show you His plan for your life. —MP
Psalm 25:8-10 “The Lord is good and does what is right. He shows sinners the right way to live. He teaches his ways to humble people. He leads them with fairness. The Lord is kind and true to those who obey what he said in his agreement.”
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, thank You for loving me and being patient with me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
