Being the Potter's Tool

For the past day and a half, I have been pondering my last post.

Asking God to use me is a huge prayer. Being willing and ready to take inspired action is even more huge.

Anyone can pray the prayer, but not everyone is willing to act on it. Am I?

To be redundant in my word choice, the hugeness of it has begun to settle in.

Admittedly, I am more of a convenience girl:  I go to God when it’s convenient . . . and I usually look for an instant answer.

But I want more than that. I want to BE more than that.

I’m beginning to realize that what I’m setting out to do is not a simple Q & A session with God.

Along with that, I don’t want this blog to be a brag-list of how God used me. I AM ready and willing . . . but how I go forth with writing about it is still something I’m grappling with.

It’s not about me.

It’s about God being the potter and me being the tool.
