The Potter's Clay

Sunday night, my son sat down to start with the book project he needs to finish for Language Arts. He finished the book report and then, he was supposed to make a doll depicting the character in his story.


Putting out his clay materials, plastic knife, aluminum foil and other things on the table, he sat down and I marvelled as the clay started taking its form. He was deeply concentrated as he pulled a wad of a particular colored clay and delicately, his hands applied it to the desired shape he wanted.


I started taking pictures. Watching him reminded me of how much love our Potter had poured in creating us after His own image. Here are the pictures:






















Lord, You are our "Potter" and we are the "clay". What right do we have to question what You do? "Change our hearts, oh God, so we can be like You."

  4. Rosel,

    I love the way you used something so simple as your son's art project to illustrate how amazing God put into each and every one of us and how different we all are.

  6. Rosel,

    This was awesome! I loved your analogy with pictures of your son forming an image of man out of clay by his hands to the Scripture Isaiah 64:8 and the following ones through out. Brilliant my friend and an easy way to help those who don't fully understand His way in how he formed each one of us.

    Thank you for your wonderful comments on my site. I so love being friends with so many who love the Lord and show different ways of putting it out there for others.

    You are truly a talented woman in the Lord and I am proud to call you my dear friend.

    Love you much,

  7. I imagined God doing the same to me as I read this, carefully sculpting and shaping, taking away what doesn't need to be there and adding to what does.

    What a wonderful post. And what great art, too!
