The words of the scripture
the potter and the clay
The balance, the struggle –
free will and God’s eternal plan
Ever pliable, so must we be
receptive clay, giving
to the loving hands of the potter
being reformed, molded
Reshaped, worthy vessels
to hold, to pour out
a libation, an offering of love
God’s grace, to the world
