Clay in the Potter’s Hand

When the world around me seems to be crumbling, I won’t hang my head in shame,
Neither will I grumble or fall in despair, by God’s grace I will win this game.
I will not live in defeat, I will not give in to fear or doubt,
I know what the love of God is all about.

I serve the God who by the words of His mouth, said let there be light,
The sun to rule the day and moon to rule the night.
Lord order my steps and direct my path,
Help me to seek you first as I walk this narrow path.

Lord give me a humble heart to chase only after you,
Lord give me grace to endure and courage to do only what pleases you.
Lord, please come into my heart and have your way,
Lord, You are the Potter and I am the clay.
Lord You are my Shepherd who guides me each day,
You are the only One I can always trust to make a way.

I am but clay in the Potter’s hand,
Daily He molds me as I trust His perfect plan.
Sometimes His molding is difficult to take,
But I know a vessel of honor is what He intends to make.
As clay to the Potter, Lord let my life be,
A vessel of honor to be used by thee.

Have Thine Own Way, Lord

Have Thine own way, Lord,
Have Thine own way;
Thou art the Potter,
I am the clay.
Mould me and make me
After Thy will,
While I am waiting,
Yielded and still.

Have Thine own way, Lord,
Have Thine own way;
Search me and try me,
Master, today.
Whiter than snow, Lord,
Wash me just now,
As in Thy presence
Humbly I bow.

Have Thine own way, Lord,
Have Thine own way;
Wounded and weary,
Help me, I pray.
Power, all power,
Surely is Thine,
Touch me and heal me,
Savior divine.

Have Thine own way, Lord,
Have Thine own way;
Hold o’er my being
Absolute sway.
Fill with Thy Spirit
Till all shall see
Christ only, always,
Living in me.

LORD I NEED YOU

Lord I need you. Please make a way for me. Please help me not to give up on the vision that you have placed in my heart. Help me to keep holding on to your promises, knowing that you will bring them to pass in your time and in your way. I know that your ways are vastly different from mine.

Father, I ask you, please make it clear what I should do at this time and in the days ahead. You are my only hope. Help me to have hope in your will even when my will does not come true.

STRENGTH FROM MY STRUGGLES

Write about something that makes you strong. #Bloganuary January 25, 2022

Struggles in life do not have to be your downfall. Accept them and let them become your strength. Let it shape you. My struggles make me stronger and better!!

Going through the struggles have certainly made me stronger. My struggles brought me to my knees, thus drawing me closer to God and that makes it all worth it! The happiness I have gained and the peace I have experienced after becoming closer to God has made the struggle more than worth it.

If my family and I had not gone through everything, I would not be getting closer to God like I am now. I would not be studying His Word on a daily basis, I wouldn’t have the patience and peace I am now experiencing.

Without my struggles I would not know the joy of knowing that God’s strength is sufficient for me to stand in any situation. My family would not be able to appreciate the blessings as much if we did not have to go through the struggles.

My struggle has made me a better daughter, sister, aunt, cousin and friend. Things that go uphill have to be pushed. It has taught me that there are no bad lessons, just really hard ones. If I want to be stronger, I have to lift heavier weights. If I want to be a better Christian I cannot run away from my struggles. Adversity builds character. I am stronger because of my struggles.

Today’s Prayer # 129

Father I give thee thanks for the start of a new day,
My prayer is that you will guide me along the way.
Lord, rid me of envy, malice and anger,
Put away from my lips filthy language and slander.
I seek not for fortune or fame, neither for silver or gold,
I seek only for your peace to reign within my soul.
Lord you know my needs before I call,
You pick me up each time I fall.
Thank you Lord that you are always by my side,
Help me to be humble and not be filled with pride.

Prayer of Repentance

Heavenly Father, I come to you acknowledging that I have sinned and fallen short of your glory. Abba Father, please turn my eyes away from vanity and worldly desires and help me to fix my gaze only on you.

Lord I repent of all my sins and I accept your forgiveness for the sins I have committed in thought, word and deed. Help me not to justify some of the things that I do and say that is not pleasing to you. May you help me to be truthful in my heart and willing to change my ways.

Lord, I surrender all to you. Come into the secret places of my heart and empty me of all unholy thoughts. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer in Jesus name I pray, amen.

Tomorrow Is Not Promised # 2

“Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.” Proverbs 27:1

Never put off for tomorrow what you can do today.
Don’t you know that tomorrow is an indefinite day?
Let not the fears about tomorrow consume you today.
Tomorrow might be too late so encourage someone today.

Tomorrow is not promised, as we could die today.
The clock is ticking and time is slipping away.
Each day of our life could be our last day.
Life is so fragile, and death is only a heartbeat away.

Who knows what tomorrow may bring?
Procrastinating until tomorrow could be a dangerous thing.
It’s not good to dwell on the things of the past,
Make peace with all men today, because today could be your last.

Today is the day to make things right.
Be a beacon for Christ, always walking in the light.

Lord, each day I need your fresh mercies and fresh grace to carry me through.

Unmerited Grace

Jesus came and died for our sins on the cross,
He paid for our salvation, so that our souls would not be lost.
He is the One who died in our place,
Demonstrating to mankind His love and unmerited grace.

On the cross there at Calvary, Jesus was nailed to a tree,
He gave His life so you and I could be set free.
Only Jesus Christ was good enough to pay the price of sin,
To unlock heaven’s gate, so redeemed sinners can enter in.
