Prayer: Master Potter
(inspired by Jeremiah
18:1-11, Isaiah 64:8)
Father,
too often my heart becomes hard,
unpliable,
and unmoved because of my stubborn will
or
due to my own ignorance.
My
pride convinces me that I know best
and
I become reckless along the way.
I
want to trust You as the Master Potter
when
You break my will to remove my imperfections.
Though
it is a painful, humbling and deliberate process
I
invite You to realign my heart’s desires
and
reshape my will according to Your purpose.
As
I go through this purifying process
help
me to stand firm during the testing periods of my life.
I
want to be a vessel of honor that brings glory to You.
In
Jesus’ Name I pray. Amen.
