Marks of the Potter’s Hand – v2

Signs of His touch
marks of the Potter’s hand
little places moved
pushed into position

His efforts recorded
written on the flesh, the tissue
on this flawed vessel
on my life, my clay

Places where imperfections
worked out by His molding
sculpting of His knowing, working
the clay, slowly, giving to His will

Reformed by the touch, the loving touch
the water, the healing of brokenness
made useful, ever needing more
of the Potter’s hands, His marks on me
