I had a bit of Sunday journaling time today, reflecting on the work of the Potter in my life. I’m amazed at how He’s created, shaped, and filled me for His glory. Although it hasn’t felt pleasant at times to be molded, I have to admit – He is masterful! But now, O Lord, you …

Let Him love you more
