Isaiah Chapter 29

You turn things upside down, as if the potter were thought to be like the clay!
Shall what is formed say to him who formed it, "He did not make me"? Can the pot say of the potter, "He knows nothing"? - v16

Verse 16 about the potter and the clay stood out for me. It made me think about my attitude towards God, my Creator. Do I really understand how Big He Is and how small I am? How often do I go through the religious motions, doing the right things on the outside but inside my thoughts and priorities are somewhere else? These verses are sobering, God is so much greater and wiser than I can imagine. He knows all about me, he sees every small detail of my life. I cannot escape him. He made me, he is moulding me. Praise God that like the house of Jacob, he hasn’t finished with me yet. God has a future for me and my children and I like Isaiah want to understand how to put Him first, living the way that my Creator intended.
