My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread from Kirsten Holmberg  …  USE THIS LINK  ...  told about a young lady, named Asheton, who felt broken and met a young man, name Nick, whose faith had been restored as a Christian.  And Nick showed Asheton how God will reshape believers into new vessels of hope and promise.  And the two were finally married and became teachers in a pottery class, teaching the attendees that they are special and being reshaped to honor God with their creative hands. 


And as God’s clay, I think of how my Lord reshaped me from broken pieces into a vessel of purpose, once broken shards of addiction into a minister who glorifies my Lord by showing others how to be clay in the Potter’s hands.   How has God reshaped your life?


My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank for  reshaping me for Your purposes.


My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, … thank You, Lord, … for taking all who are willing to be the clay in Your hands as You reshape us for Your glory.  …  Amen
