XVIII. 6: and the same question was
asked the house of Israel by the
Lord.
DR.. Wharton compared God with
the potter, and his people with the
clay. God is the divine potter, he
said, while man is the unattractive
clay; God is the, sculptor and man is
the model. BY his divine power and
workmanship he makes us useful yes
sells, transformed from the clay Of
the earth. Are we willing 10 be
made vessels of God and are we sub
missive to the chisel and the ham
mer?
II is an important question we
should learn and one which we must
answer, he sail. Our lives are con-
trary TO the command of God. We
have ideas of what is right and wrong
but most of us do not see the future;
we are only looking at the present.
II the clay becomes dark and stormy
we worry. fret and complain and be-
gin to look into the face of the
Father.
IL Is our on-submissiveness that
has caused the great human failure
and hesitancy on our part that we
are not made perfect vessels. Man
is the only creature that rebels from
Gods authority. II is hard for us
TO understand IT, DIR. Wharton said
whatever method God may use,
, whether 1t be the hammer. chisel or
furnace, we should undergo. Il mat
ters not what kind of clay we are for
God can make us into perfect and
beautiful vessels after His likeness.
Give the Divine Potter a chance In
our lives. was the closing thought OF
DR.. Wharton.
