But clay

Not everything that we don’t get right is about sin or pride.

Sometimes it’s just that we’re not God. Sometimes it’s that ‘we are but clay’.

There is plenty God can do that we can not.

There is a place of rest to be found when we see the difference.

I am not everywhere at all times with all knowledge, all wisdom and all power.

Not excuse making. Just resting in the process of becoming like Him and in releasing the reliance on my own understanding and turning more into relying on His.

I know you know you’re not God. But are you as kind to yourself as He is about what you could not do, be or know?

Genesis 2:7 Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

Isaiah 64:8 Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.

2 Cor 4:7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
