2 Timothy
2:20. “In a wealthy home some utensils are made of gold and silver, and some
are made of wood and clay. The expensive
utensils are used for special occasions, and the cheap ones are for everyday
use.
In my years as a teacher, I
came to know many students and each one was unique in appearance and
personality, even with identical twins, I soon learned the differences and I
realized how creative God really is. Because we have been compared to clay
vessels, I believe this verse confirms our diversity. Uniqueness is truly a
gift to celebrate and we are to be thankful for who we are created to be. It is
a “hindrance” for us to always wish we were someone else
.
The prayer for today: “ Oh
Lord, keep me pure so I can honour you by becoming what you created me to
be. Help me to strive to be like pure
gold and silver but also to be content with who I am. Help me to remain like
new clay and allow you to mold me into being someone who can be useful to you
and I will give you all the glory and honour and praise! In Jesus name, Amen.
