MY STORY
I looked at the landscape nearby that He created as I was in deep thought considering what life’s journeys had thrown my way throughout the years of my life. It was to the left of the trail that a deep red color had been exposed and as I bent down, I picked up some of the soil that had been offered to me from the ground and began to play and mold what I had found. Realizing the consistency that of the clay.
So much of my life had resembled the piece I now held in my hands. I the potter had found a treasure. A story between the Potter and the clay had begun……
CREATE
And just like that, earth and all that was in it was created in 6 days. Within those 6 days He created beauty, shape and form. On day 6 He created mankind. He created him in the image of God. Man was made to create. Genesis 1-2
This was a real moment for me when I considered that there was a Maker, a Creator and I was made in His image to create.
WRITING AND BOOKS
The Potters words revealed truths that I had not heard of before. I was quickly drawn to everything He had to say and knew that some how I would have to share everything that I was learning so that others might understand what the Potter was trying to say to them. So the Potter began to teach and I the woman began to listen as my heart softened.
NATURAL WORLD
As I picked the clay up. I began to ponder what is the clays worth? What does the clay have to offer me? How do I create something of value? What elements are there that anchor me to my pottery?
So my studio began just as it had started not just in the clay but who the Potter was as well. The natural world began to open up and God had more for me to see.
There would be a connection and a bridge that would lead me to new possibilities as I gleaned between this world and who God was. The gospel of Jesus Christ began to make since in the most beautiful way.
