Our morning prayer today reminded us that God is the Potter, who moulds and shapes us, the clay. On the first day of the Chapter, we brought the four elements needed to make clay pots: earth, fire, air and water..
On our journey so far, we have had to mix the water with the clay, shape it, dry it in the air, then allow it to be fired, in order to form the pot we want.
"Go down to the potter's house, and there I will tell you what I have to say… You are clay in my hands, like the clay in his… (Jer 18).
We are making progress, even if it does not seem so! Once again, we looked at the document, "Direction for the Future". In general, there was satisfaction with the text.
The whole morning will proceed along these lines, so that the final version of all the Chapter documents can be written this afternoon, and voted upon tomorrow. (Hopefully!)
