The vessel lay there broken no more of any use once someone's pride and joy it had suffered much abuse. But the master potter happened to walk this way and He saw the broken vessel on the ground there, where it lay. With hands so kind and gentle he crushed and formed new clay he molded the new vessel the one you see today. So if you too feel hopeless and your dreams are shattered too let Jesus mend your broken vessel He can give new life to you! ------------------ ~*~ Time erases and rewrites all the lines.

Man, He sure is working through you two in your poetry! That is wonderful! I can't think of the place but the field where they threw the broken pottery the shards. Where He fixes all and makes it useful again. Very Biblical Echo thanks for listening when He inspired you! Ahhh, it just now hits me hours later. THE POTTERS FIELD!

Rebecca...God is working in me everywhere, I feel so wonderful...I can't explain it though. He took that broken vessel I was not too long ago and totally reformed me into what I am now. I feel like a totally different person, and I have the good Lord above to thank! "The Broken Vessel" is a poem I hope shows other people that God can help them in their lives too, that if they feel hopeless Jesus can give them a whole new life cause He can mend their broken hearts, he sure did for me! ------------------ ~*~ Time erases and rewrites all the lines.

Dear Echo (God Bless you,dear), It is only after that we have been broken from the futilities of our own ways, thoughts and deeds--that He can- remake us, renew us and give us a new start and a new lease on life.(2 Corinthians 5:17)says a lot to me- I hope it speaks to you as well. David "GOD GIVES- but man must open his hand." (German Proverb) |

This is exquisite, and very moving. I've been that broken vessel too. If not for Jesus, I would be completely lost. Thank you for this wonderful poem! ~ ~ ~ The spiritual wind that holds survivors aloft, plants the seeds from which bloom new hope ... R.J.G. |
