The Potter & The Clay...

Like normal, each and every SONday, I mention here on Life with Lynnie (LwL), that it is our day of worship.

Yes, we need to worship. 

Hopefully, you do.  I do.

Of course, I also enjoy worshipping through music.

A Facebook (FB) friend shared a song that I had never before heard.  But, I adored it.

It's by Michael English and is entitled, He Didn't Throw The Clay Away.  Here is a link for you to listen to and/or sing along:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRbWAtU6LPw&feature=share.  The lyrics are below.

He Didn't Throw The Clay Away

Empty and broken, I came back to Him
A vessel unworthy, so scarred with sin.
But He did not despair...He started over again
And I bless the day, He didn't throw the clay away.

Over and over, He molds me and makes me,
Into His likeness, He fashions the clay.
A vessel of honor, I am today,
All because Jesus didn't throw the clay away.

He is the Potter...I am the clay
Moulded in His image, He wants me to stay.
When I stumble...and fall and my vessel breaks,
He just picks up the pieces,
He does not throw the clay away...

Over and over, He molds me and makes me,
Into His likeness, He fashions the clay.
A vessel of honor, I am today,
All because Jesus didn't throw the clay away.

A vessel of honor, I am today,
All because Jesus didn't throw the clay away.

Yes, He is the potter.  And, we are the clay.

I appreciate that He didn't throw us/the clay away. 

Thinking of how the lyrics refer to the potter and the clay, made me think of Isaiah 64:8, "But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand."

 As our potter, He moulds us as the clay.

By moulding us, we all are the work of His hand.

Yes, He changes us from being the person we were, into being a new person.

Are you thankful for this?  Hopefully, so.

For this, I am truly thankful.

Thank You, Lord!


Until next time...
