~ 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.

I prayed for God to center me on His wheel.

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