~ Talking to God ~

The other day I was driving from my daughter's home to my home. When I am driving by myself, I like to talk on the phone. No one I would usually talk to was available.

It was as if God said, "You could talk to me."

At that moment, I really wanted a back and forth conversation and verbalized that to God.

Lately my interactions with God had seemed pretty one-sided. I expressed that and asked why.

An answer came quickly: "Because you have failed to be grateful."

I immediately saw the truth in that statement and confessed it as sin asking God to forgive me and, as it says in I John 1:9, cleanse me from all unrighteousness.

As the conversation continued, I asked, "What happened that has caused our relationship to seem so distant these days?" The answer: "You have allowed your life to revolve around something other than me (for example: WdC and a WdC friend)"

At church last Sunday, the pastor used his potter's wheel in his message. He talked about the importance of the clay being centered on the wheel.

He is the potter and I am the clay...
