The Potter's Wheel
By Kenneth L. Birks


As the wheel turns, the Potter shapes for peculiarity.
With marred clay, He shapes with wisdom and clarity.
As clay in His hands, so are we while He takes pleasure.
Delighting at the wheel, He creates marvelously.
As the wheel turns, He shapes each vessel uniquely
.
As the wheel turns, He shapes to fulfill vision and purpose.
Accordingly, the Potter arranges His chosen vessels.
With precision, He molds and shapes for their intended use.
Knowing their future, how each will respond, He shapes.
As the wheel turns, He fashions with eternal purposes in mind.

As the wheel turns, in mercy, He allows for weaknesses.
Recognizing imperfections in all, He continues to shape.
With perfect views of their end, He shapes accordingly.
Knowing whether they will be unto honor or not, He molds.
As the wheel turns, there’s sadness for those who resist.

As the wheel turns, not knowing what He knows, we ponder.
Catching glimpses of His hands at work, we become pliable.
Carefully watching His vessels in action, the Potter smiles.
Setting up divine appointments, He chooses wisely for all.
As the wheel turns, He shapes as tasks are completed.

As the wheel turns, the chosen fully embrace their Potter,
With delight in the Potter’s work, they energetically go forth.
With anticipation, pressing through obstacles, they trust.
Knowing that the Potter is intimately acquainted, faith arises.
As the wheel turns, growth and maturity are recognized by all.

Scriptures to Meditate Upon

2 Corinthians 5:17, Psalm 139:14-17, Psalm 32:9, James 3:3, Hebrews 12:11, James 4:6-7, 2 Timothy 2;20-21, Daniel 11:32.

May God bless you mightily as you stay on the Potter’s wheel, carrying out great exploits for Him and His kingdom.
