Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light for my path. (Psalm 119)
Jeremiah 18:1-6
Adoration: Reshape my life, O Lord, as you see fit ... Help N._______ to allow you to reshape (her or his) life, as you see fit... According to the lesson God revealed to Jeremiah at the potter’s house, like wet, wedged clay, I am thrown onto the potter’s wheel each morning as I head out into the day. Today, will I be a lump of clay with stones and dry places at my heart, or will I be a good lump of clay, content to be malleable in the Master’s hands? Am I willing to be shaped and re-shaped into the vessel that God needs me to be as this day proceeds, pausing my own agendas to chat with a lonely person along the way or to lend a helping hand to someone in need? Do I have the patience and flexibility to be reworked time and again according to the designs of my Creator? Reshape my life, O Lord, as you see fit. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; that I know very well. (Psalm 139:14) God does not hasten his works. He does all things in their time. St. Vincent de Paul Soli gloriam dei.
