The glaze of God’s love – v2


We become tired, burdened,
too much for us to carry,
weak, succumbing, broken,
in the struggle, the grind of life…
 
God gathers our broken clay,
our sharp, shattered pieces,
raised, lifted by the Potter,
from the earth, this ground…
 
We are placed on the wheel,
made soft once again, plastic,
fired in the crucible of life,
washed in the glaze of God’s love…
 
Our broken clay reshaped,
renewed without, within,
in the hands of the Potter,
new life to begin…
 
Each of us unique, special,
in the eyes of the Creator,
the colors and patterns
of the glaze of our lives…
 
Oh, how the Potter loves us,
taking us out of the kiln, the fires,
placing us back in world renewed,
to fulfill His divine purpose…
