God's work in our lives mirrors a potter reshaping clay, as seen in Jeremiah 18. When vessels become marred, the potter doesn't discard them but transforms them into something new. God continues to shape us through difficult seasons, preparing every aspect of our being for His purpose. The process involves being dug from dark places, soaked in water, and treaded upon until resistance fades. Even when we're broken, God picks up the pieces and reshapes us. If you're still breathing, God isn't finished with you yet.
