Like Gloves of the Potter

Our bodies, our living flesh
a willing vessel
so we are called
to live as gloves
giving our all

Like gloves of the Potter
skin for his body
going and serving
out into the world

Like gloves of the Potter
giving our all
sharing his message
his love for us all

quote attributed to Corrie ten Bloom,
“I have a glove here in my hand. The glove cannot do anything by itself, but when my hand is in it, it can do many things. True, it is not the glove, but my hand in the glove that acts. We are gloves. It is the Holy Spirit in us who is the hand, who does the job. We have to make room for the hand so that every finger is filled.”
