Jeremiah 18:6 – “As the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand.”

This scripture beautifully illustrates God’s authority over our lives. Like a potter shaping clay, He works tirelessly—forming, refining, and molding us into something purposeful. The potter may break down and rebuild the clay again and again until it takes on the exact shape he envisions. His goal is to create a vessel that can either hold something valuable or stand as a work of art for display. When the work is complete, the potter marks it as his masterpiece.

Likewise, God—the Master Potter—holds our lives in His hands. Even in seasons of brokenness, He is not discarding us; He is reshaping us. Every press, every turn, and every remolding is part of His process to make us into vessels of honor—living testimonies of His goodness.

Further down in this passage, we see a call to repentance—an invitation to yield to His hands, like clay that does not resist the potter’s shaping. When we surrender, He can complete His perfect work in us and leave His unmistakable mark so that all can see we are His handiwork.

If your current season feels shattered, remember: you are still in the Potter’s hands. This brokenness can become your breakthrough—if you trust His process.

God bless you!
