What does it mean to be clay in the hands of the Potter?

It makes me think of Adam being formed in Genesis 2...for a purpose?....

as opposed to the rest of man in Genesis 1 that were created.

Every other human born since Adam was in that pot!

We that are 'in Christ' of the Father, were removed from that pot.

We should be in constant prayer (1 Thess 5:17), constantly talking and listening to the Lord, and going where he leads us, doing what he leads us to do.

Hello missmuffet,

God is the potter and we as his children are the clay. He molds us and shapes us into the vessels he desires.( Romans 9:21Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for common use?) He continues working on each of us, smoothing out our ruff edges and forever shaping us into the likeness of Christ. (Romans 8:28n And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.)

God bless ?

God is sovereign over all His creation, all things are made as God wills and speaks into existence. He may make each creation for high purpose or low. He may cast away that which  displeases Him. He may raise up that which pleases him, to be with Him for eternity to come.

God works on us because He sees the potential in us and has something important in mind for our lives. It is actually a great honor because He is continually molding us into the image of His Son. The Father applies His discipline in our lives not out of anger or frustration, but out of His unconditional love and wonderful vision of our place in His kingdom. Don't get frustrated as God molds you. Instead, ask Him to show you what He is forming in you, accept His leadership, and grow stronger in Him.
