Sometimes I really want to say something and I can't.
I want to have a word of encouragement, but I don't.
Because this strength does not come from me, but from the Lord.
You Lord and God have the right direction and words.
The Lord does the work and the Lord changes hearts and circumstances.
As much as I want to touch people's hearts, I can't, because I'm dust, a failure and a sinner. I don't want to speak for myself, I don't want my words to come from my flesh.
The miracle comes through the Lord and His Spirit. The Lord is healing and salvation. Your words make the difference that change hearts. I am only a servant and I am dust. We are like pots made of clay by the hands of the Potter, if the pot is dirty and full of impurities, it is certain that its cultivation will not prosper.
The pot needs to be emptied and cleaned (purified) so that it is filled again with the appropriate soil, and water for the seed to be placed, so it can germinate, grow and bear fruit in its right and determined time.
But it is certain that the pot needs to be taken care of so that there are no pests (sins), and that the soil is properly watered, (filled with the Spirit of God), So that the cultivation does not die, but grows and flourishes and bears fruit for its purpose.
And everything in its right time, in the right way, without any shortcuts, but for the purpose that God created it.
As for the purpose that God created us, to be prosperous, to be happy and to achieve the purpose for which we were created, the dreams of our heart, to be fruitful and fulfilled in our ways.
“But now, O Lord, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand.” Isaiah 64:8 ESV
