 God Moulds Them Into Vessels of Honour Who Place Themselves Into His Hands ㅡ

 “But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of Thy hand.” (Isaiah 64:8).

 While the human agent is devising and planning for himself something that God has withheld him from doing, he has a hard time. 

 He complains and frets, and has still increased difficulties. But when he submits to be as clay in the hands of the potter, then God works the man into a vessel of honor. 

 The clay submits to be worked. If God had His way, hundreds would be worked and made into vessels as He sees best.

 The Potter cannot mold and fashion unto honor that which has never been placed in His hands. 

 The Christian life is one of daily surrender, submission, and continual overcoming. 

 Every day fresh victories will be gained. Self must be lost sight of, and the love of God must be constantly cultivated. 

 Thus we grow up into Christ. Thus the life is fashioned according to the divine model.

 (Lift Him Up 65.1, 65.2, 65.4)
