God is Molding You

We are not alone on this journey called life. God is there gently guiding and directing us as we go about our day. Sometimes it’s hard to hear him because of all the distractions that we may have around us, but he’s there. Distractions are loud but if you listen for that quiet voice, then you’ll hear him. It’s almost like a whisper. The difference between my own voice and his is that mine caters more to what I want for myself (like what’s convenient or easy) and his voice caters to what’s selfless and what will help me grow (which is not always convenient or easy 😊).

Sometimes I have to remind myself that I am a servant of God. That is a huge part of my purpose on this earth. Jesus came to show us what that means through how he lived his life. I am supposed to follow his lead. It’s not always convenient or pleasant but it’s necessary. Loving those who despitefully use you (just to name one unpleasant example) and walking in love takes courage and self-restraint.

The trials that I face help to mold me into who God wants me to become. The lessons that I learn help mold me. The faith that I have in God’s love for me and being rooted in that faith helps mold me (Colossians 2:6,7). Renewing my mind constantly and not allowing the world to stifle my growth by conforming to this world also helps mold me (Romans 12:2). I pray that God will continue to “create in me a clean heart and renew a right spirit within me” whenever I stray from my path so that I can continue to be molded by him (Psalms 51:10).

“But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.” (Isaiah 64:8)
