The Potter

A couple of weeks ago a friend encouraged me through the gentle reminder that, like a Potter, my Savior is fashioning me and His strong hands will never let me go. I was touched and inspired by that reminder, and through that inspiration came this...maybe one day I will turn it into a song.

A weary pilgrim, tired of walking,
Is fighting to keep up the pace.
The load he carried, is not forgotten,
Yet removed by grace.
As he struggles and cries in despair,
'I just can't go on one more day'
A still small voice, pierces the silence,
And says, 'Child, I will show you the way.'

'Because my everlasting arms are around you,
And like a Potter, I am shaping your soul.
Though the darkness seems to surround you,
My light is guiding you home.
You need not fear midst the trials,
Though fears wage war in your soul.
In the valley I will not leave you,
And through brokenness I will make you whole.'
