Jesus Calling: April 7th

“I AM THE POTTER; you are My clay. I designed you before the foundation of the world. I arrange the events of each day to form you into this preconceived pattern. My everlasting Love is at work in every event of your life. On some days your will and Mine flow smoothly together. You tend to feel in control of your life when our wills are in harmony. On other days you feel as if you are swimming upstream, against the current of My purposes. When that happens, stop and seek My face. The opposition you feel may be from Me, or it may be from the evil one.
Talk with Me about what you are experiencing. Let My Spirit guide you through treacherous waters. As you move through the turbulent stream with Me, let circumstances mold you into the one I desire you to be. Say yes to your Potter as you go through this day.”

RELATED SCRIPTURE:

Isaiah 64:8 (NIV)
8 Yet you, Lord, are our Father.
    We are the clay, you are the potter;
    we are all the work of your hand.

Psalm 27:8 (NIV)
8 My heart says of you, “Seek his face!”
    Your face, Lord, I will seek.

Today's Prayer:

Dear Jesus,

As the Potter, You shape and mold me according to Your divine plan for my life. In moments of harmony and in times of opposition, help me to trust in Your unconditional love and unfailing guidance.

When I feel like I'm swimming against the current of Your purposes, remind me to seek Your face. Let Your Spirit be my guide through every challenge and uncertainty in life.

May I surrender to Your will, allowing each circumstance to mold me into the person You desire me to be. With faith and humility, I say yes to You, my Potter, as I journey through this day.

In Jesus' name, amen.
