We often miss what God is doing all because of the severity of what we are going through. True, no one wants to hurt. No one wants to be in pain. No one wants to have their lives all shattered to pieces. But somehow we have to get to the place of spiritual maturity where we can say, “Lord, not my will but thine be done.” The Potter always know how much to handle the clay. He knows where to squeeze it in the right places. The Smelter always knows how much fire to apply to his work. Then, please know that God knows what He is doing when He allows your life to be squeezed, broken, shattered, and hurt. You are special to God. You are His choice possession. He, only He, will know when you are ready. He wants to come into you, His vessel, and do a great work – a work that will bring glory to His name. He wants to abide in you to give expression to His life in the earth. There is more to you than your name, the way you look, the things you do. You have almighty God living in you. You are His vessel of honor.
