MY ECOUNTER, WITH THE POTTER
I knew how hard it was when some circumstances broke me.
They were much more stronger than me.
I thought I could put myself together again.
I tried hard but the more harder I tried,the more
worst and complex,things became for me.
I almost let go and I almost gave up!
I felt it was of no importance to carry on again...
I felt I have been broken beyond repair.
Everything about my existence was surronded
by persistence prejudice.
But not quite long,a potter came across me and said;
He can still put me back again if only I would let Him?
Out of urgency I cried out:"Yep!!I will.
Again he said;I must allow Him to break me,melt me,and mould me
afresh again.
Oh I said'how do I start all over again,after been thus far? what
will others think of me?
Then said the potter: what matters most is "I".And not others.
It pains a lot,yet,it pays off.
It seems unpleasant at first,but palatable at the end.
Alas, I was in the potter's house still trying to decide wether
to be put back all over again...
There and then he showed me other vessels that have
refused to be put back,all over again.
For the sake of self-pity and fear of what others might say.
For this cause;said the potter,they have been lying hopelessly
in pains and dejections for a long period of time now.
Come at once he said!Without much hesitation,I jumped over to the
potter's wheel,and I allowed him to put me back all together again.
Thou it sounds easy to explain.But my friend! It wasn't easy.
But at the end,I was glad that he perfectly put me back again.
I have this to stick with you:
"it takes the night to bring out the beauty of stars"
And for the fact that you've failed,doesn't mean that you've
ome to the end of your road...Just submit to the potter,His Wheel
and His-hands for he can, and he will definately fix you up again,
and again... untill you become that best and unique fellow...you
were meant to BE.
Why These Tears?
"No matter how loud we cry, or long we weep- over
Our present and past troubles, pains, hurts... it still don't
change the situation. neither can you turn back the hands
of the clock in just a twinkle of an eye. You'd better start
believing that : Things can get better than they seem to be now.
Life is full of improvement. My Circum-Stances-Today! can not and
will never determine tomorrow and tomorrow the NEXT and the next the OTHER...Cheer up dear
friend. Dominate your circumstances, either good or bad... by making up your mind- to grow beyond
your very own limitations ,positions or abilities. There's one other vital ingredients needed, if you and I
must grow positively. The Truth. Sure, these Truth peers in-like a radar does through a massive fog.
These same truth, is still the Way and the Life we all can depend on. If I must grow; without
abnormalities, tumors or in deficiencies...I need these Truth-The One with whom I can do all things
because he only can give me the strength when am weak. Hope when all of mine is lost, love when the
world shut its eye at me, peace when no one else knows my fear and fulfillment in life Here and life
There. You can grow every day!!!! The downfall of a Man is never the end of his Life"

LISten TO tHe pIcTuReS'3
Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The LORD God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places..... |
