4-7

我是陶匠，你是我的泥土。在世界的基礎建立之前，我就已經設計了你。我安排每天的事件，將你塑造成這個預先計劃的樣式。我的永恒之愛在你生命中的每一個事件中都在發揮作用。有些日子，你的意願和我的意願順暢地流動在一起。當我們的意願和諧一致時，你往往覺得自己掌控著生活。在其他的日子裏，你會感到自己像是逆流而上，違背了我的目的。當這種情況發生時，請停下來尋求我的麵。你感到的反對可能來自我，也可能來自邪惡的敵人。

請與我談論你正在經曆的種種。讓我的靈引導你穿過險惡的水域。當你與我一起穿過這個波濤洶湧的河流時，讓環境塑造你成為我想要的那個人。當你行經這一天的時候，請對你的陶匠說：“是的”。

I am the potter; you are my clay. I designed you before the foundation of the world. I arrange the events of each day to form you into this preconceived pattern. My everlasting love is at work in every event of your life. On some days your will and mine flow smoothly together. You tend to feel in control of your life when our wills are in harmony. On other days you feel as if you are swimming upstream, against the current of my purposes. When that happens, stop and seek my face. The opposition you feel may be from me, or it may be from the evil one.

Talk with me about what you are experiencing. Let my spirit guide you through treacherous waters. As you move through the turbulent stream with me. Let circumstances mold you into the one I desire you to be. Say yes to your potter as you go through this day.
