Stay moldable

God disciplines those He loves.  This truth is throughout the Bible.  This discipline is the process by which we learn a way of life.  This same discipline requires a relationship with God.  


Just as a parent is with a child.  In order to discipline the child, you must have a relationship with the child.  The child must respect you and your authority.  So it is with God.


The more we choose to live eternally minded, the easier it becomes to live fully surrendered.  This means giving our whole life to Christ; not just the parts we want Him to control.


Just as God formed Adam; from the dust.  He breathed life into Adam and created the first human.  The same analogy applies to a potter.  He takes dust, mixes it with water and forms clay.  He then molds the clay with his hands to create something beautiful.


Stay moldable.  Let God mold you and transform your life into something beautiful.  Sometimes this can be quite painful, but if we trust what God is doing in our lives, we will become all God designed us to be.


James 4:7 - "Submit yourselves therefore to God.  Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
