Moulded by Grace: Embracing Spiritual Renewal
Episode Overview
Our lives are like clay in the hands of a potter, needing the Holy Spirit to stay moldable. The struggles of the Israelites returning from exile mirror our own spiritual journeys. Trusting in God's process is essential for spiritual growth and renewal. A heartfelt prayer encourages listeners to remain open to God's guidance. God continuously shapes us through our brokenness and pain.
Without God in our life, we will become dry like the desert. We can't be used, we can't be shaped, we can't be moulded.
