lt;p>Sooner or later, we’ll have trouble in life.</p><p>We may find ourselves out of work and financially strapped. We may become depressed about a rough patch in our marriage or an end to one. We may lose someone we love and our hearts are crushed. </p><p>But God doesn’t leave us during difficult times. He doesn’t forsake us when we’re broken or troubled.</p><p>God is the potter, and we are the clay. </p><p>I learned an interesting fact about forming clay from watching a children’s program. The host mentioned something about the pottery-making process that struck me spiritually.</p><p>“The clay is softened and able to be molded through the<em> warmth</em> of the potter’s hands.” </p><p><em>Warmth of the potter’s hands? </em></p><p>Clay <em>can’t soften itself</em> or <em>form a shape on its own</em>. The warm hands of the potter touching the clay is what causes it to soften. Then it can be formed and shaped into something useful such as a bowl or some other piece of pottery.</p><p>Honestly, I never once thought about the warmth of the potter’s hands. But after this children’s program, I saw God as the potter and us as the clay, in a whole new light. </p><p><em>Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.</em> – Isaiah 64:8 </p><p>It’s a beautiful Scripture. But even more so through the lens of <em>warmth</em> and God’s love for us.</p><p>Here are<strong> six reasons to trust the clay of your troubles in the Potter’s hands:</strong></p><p><span style="font-size: 10px;">Photo Credit: ©Getty Images/artisteer</span></p>
