Clay in our Creators Hands

Thinking on the analogy of God as a potter and we are the clay:

Each action in our life, each step we take allows the potter to sculpt us towards or away from his eternal designs.  The more we cooperate with His Hand shaping us (through grace and those around us).  How we deal with situations is shaping us for eternity.  Here on earth I believe we are most fulfilled engaging in activities that we are good at and that glorify God. The way we let God shape us will make us the vessel that best fits us.  And in heaven after we have been shaped and baked here on earth, we will be in the best form to serve him, shape to be good at what we will do in heaven and never bored with what we are doing for we are good at it and have been shaped for it.  However if we fight the Potter, we will end up as broken shards unfulfilled and failing to serve our intended purpose.

So here and now serve the Lord and let His Hands shape you into what you are best suited for for all eternity.
