ARE YOU A CRACKED POT?

This morning as Jesus and I were spending some quiet time together I wondered what the devotional would be today the Lord said.... Are you a cracked pot? I thought I certainly hope so. You may know the old story but it serves telling again. There were two water vessels. One was perfect and proud of that perfection. He often made fun of the other vessel who was flawed with a crack half way down it's side. No matter how hard the cracked pot tried to hold all the water it was always half gone before the return trip from the well was completed. One day as the cracked pot was so ashamed and feeling small the Lord told him to look down at the path from the well. On the side where the perfect pot was carried was barren dust but on the side the cracked pot was carried was an amazing path of the most beautiful flowers God had created. Every day those flowers were nourished by life giving water from a cracked pot. God can use cracked pots my friend. He can only fill vessels that are empty. He can only bless that which is broken. No matter what you are going through no matter how flawed you feel. No matter if you think you have nothing to offer God .........He loves and uses cracked pots....... Be a cracked pot for Jesus God Bless LINDA
