A wise pastor once told me 'Don't waste your pain' and it has stuck with me. Okay, so it's only been since yesterday evening, but I think it will stick with me for a long time.
I've been through many things, many heartaches, many trials, many many adversities and many temptations. But all of that put together in my life creates a beauty that only God can make something from. And He has. He's created a girl who has a passion for serving Him and has found her purpose and calling in life and wishes to whole-heartily serve Him through that. He's created a masterpiece, just as He has with each of you.
Don't waste your pain. Don't throw away what you see as 'not good enough'. Don't turn away from God because of pain. Instead, watch as God transforms it into something beyond what you could have ever imagined.
Isaiah 64:8 "8 Yet, O LORD, you are our Father.
We are the clay, you are the potter;
we are all the work of your hand. "
Jeremiah 18:5 5Then the word of the LORD came to me: 6 "O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter does?" declares the LORD. "Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.
We are like clay in the potter's hands, being slowly, delicately, fearfully & wonderfully, made into something beautiful.
Hold on. God's got a masterpiece to create.
