Questioning Clay
Isaiah 45:9
Deep inside, even the strongest of us have asked,
“Why God?
Why did you choose me for this painful path?
And why
do I suffer if I am Yours?”
Deep inside, even the strongest of us have asked,
“Why God?
Why would you make me go through this?
And why
do You let my cries echo back from darkened skies?”
Deep inside, even the strongest of us have asked,
“Why God?
Why haven't you swooped down to rescue?
And why
do my prayers seem to go unanswered?”
But deep inside, though we sometimes forget, there is a still Voice.
“You ask why?
Is it not My choice to shape you through this?
And now
I am making you more in My image.”
Deep inside, the Voice reminds our stubborn hearts,
“Am I not the Potter?
Are you not unformed clay?
Even now,
I am making you into something worthy of Me.”
