Show Notes

I know that God hears me every time I pray, but does He answer me in the way I want or expect? Not always, but I know He hears me just the same. I am comforted when I remember God knows what’s best for me. He hears my prayers. He knows what’s on my heart (Psalm 139:1-4). He sees everything that’s going on in my life. He helps me because He loves me, and I am His creation. God is the potter, and I am the clay that He can shape into anything He wants (Isaiah 29:16). I want Him to do what’s best with my life. I realize that I don’t always know what’s best for me, but He always does. I can trust my Creator with my life. When I seek to follow Him, He will help me make the most of every opportunity (Ephesians 5:15-17). God is not deaf to my prayers, and He hears me every time I call to Him. He is always with me, and He provides comfort and strength (2 Corinthians 1:3-4; Ephesians 3:16-21). He helps me every time I call to Him, even in ways I don’t see. God knows what’s best for me, and I call to Him when I’m in need because I know my Creator loves me. Bethany Acker Do you pray when you’re in need? Do you forget it’s an option? Do you sometimes not want to pray? What do you like or dislike about the mental picture of God as the potter and us as the clay? Once we’ve put our trust in Jesus, His Holy Spirit lives in us and molds us to become more and more like Jesusstrong, loving, compassionate, wise, etc. (Romans 8:29; Galatians 5:22-25). How does it make you feel to know that God is the One working in us (2 Corinthians 3:17-18; Philippians 1:6)? And yet, O Lord, you are our Father. We are the clay, and you are the potter. We all are formed by your hand. Isaiah 64:8 (NLT)
