The Original Potter

Pottery can get broken.
Pots get cracked,
Smashed and ruined.

Our lives can fall apart.
We feel fragmented,
Broken and empty.

Pottery is carefully shaped,
Hand-crafted by the creator,
Designed by the potter.

We are all intimately created.
Fearfully and wonderfully made
By God, the original potter.

Only He can mend us,
Only He can put us back together again.
He is the consummate mender.

Without his touch
We remained chipped,
Incomplete and worthless.

With his touch
We receive a holy anointing
We are made whole again.
