Lord, i am your miracle…your little piece of clay
Lord, i am your miracle
your little piece of clay
for you to shape
and use my hands
helping me share
all that is in my heart
all that i have to say
i wouldn’t have it
any other way
that to call you
my potter
each and every day
i pray that my heart will never harden
as i don’t want to block
what comes my way
through the power of your way
sometimes i am not obedient Lord
i become a rock hardened
by fear, anxiety and all of life’s struggles
but i so long to stay
just your little piece of clay
where you can truly use my
life as a message of the immense beauty
in the power of your way
so i surrender it all
this writing
where it is a fact that
“i” having nothing to do it with it at all
maybe that is what scares me
most of all
that i can’t control this
i didn’t train for this
or work for this
it just keeps flowing out
as i give you my all
as i write now i am amazed
moved and entralled
how the Holy Spirit left behind
by our Lord Jesus
so surprises me and inspires me
to give you my all
oh heavenly Father
takes this pen into your hand
help me give you my all
i just want to be a vessel
for you to speak
sharing with the world
your love for us all
take this anxiousness, unbelief, worry
or tendency to try to do it all
i no longer want to stuff and harden myself
with food, technology or entertainment
it happens so quick
i look up and never know where
the time went
today these words are just
my chance
my chance to repent
that i never want to lose my ability
to give you my all
and lose my ability to
be your little clay
to be molded
with your new life
each and every day
i guess that is my prayer
my prayer today
to just to stay like clay
i want to keep writing
you have put so much
on my heart
i mean i have so much to say
i trust you so much Lord
my heavenly father, master, savior
and friend
i am your miracle
your little piece of clay
and now i can finally see
what i think you have
been trying to communicate
to me
like Paul said to the Galatians
“I have been crucified with Christ
and I no longer live,
but Christ lives in me”
that if there is anything
hardened or firm
it is the foundation of Christ
that radiates
from within me
Lord God, i want you to know
i so long to always follow your way
to pursue you with all my heart, all my strength
and all my soul
living into that day
where i meet you in heaven
and you might say
there goes jon
a man who was after my heart
my little piece of clay
a miracle of man
who gave it everything
he had
everything he had
to truly
follow my Way
