Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill

“Let God put you on his wheel and whirl you as he likes. . . . Don’t lose heart in the process. “ (Oswald Chambers 1874–1917)

We may never have looked at it quite that way, but sometimes that is what it seems like. We are in a whirl wind that should teach us to go with the flow. We, the clay have no ability to change it, so let God (the potter) have complete control.  The writer of Isaiah 29:13-16 gives us these words of The Lord, “The Lord said: Because these people  approach Me with their mouths to honor Me with lip-service— yet their hearts are far from Me, and their worship consists of man-made rules learned by rote — therefore I will again confound these people with wonder after wonder. The wisdom of their wise men will vanish, and the understanding of the perceptive will be hidden. Woe to those who go to great lengths to hide their plans from the LORD. They do  their works in darkness, and say, “Who sees us? Who knows us?  You have turned things around, as if the potter were the same as the clay. How can what is made say about its maker, “He didn’t make me”? “How can what is formed say about the one who formed it, “He doesn’t understand what he’s doing”?

God, Forgive us when we think we know more than You. Amen.

Bro. Bill
