Clocks and Vases

Let's picture this; When someone made (thought up) something like lets say a clock or a vase...if we would have a clock or vase like that and it would break or wouldn't work anymore...who better to go to then the creator and maker of the clock or vase, right? He, the maker and creator, would know right away what is wrong AND how to fix it so it would work according to how he made it to be.

Well, God is the Creator and we are His Creation, we as believers know what God has done in our lives and what He made (and is making) out of the "clocks and vases" we were when we came to Him. He knew what to do then and will always be there to help us to remain and stay "original" just the way He created us to be. All the other "clocks and vases" out there that do not have the revelation that God is their Maker need to know this truth also. They might not realize that there is a Maker, but He IS their Maker none the less. In the meantime they walk around broken, damaged, chipped, without important parts or have their "time" set wrong. The truth is that God alone can help put their parts together, He alone can set the time right, He alone will make them whole again, He alone can repaint and remold them. Too many people end up going to quacks for some repair, but they just get the wrong parts, the wrong materials applied and they still won't work the right way. Most of the time they seem to be repaired only to fall apart again at a later time. They are missing out on the experience of complete and utter restoration, repair and rebuilding that God has in store for each and every person. God wants to hold His creations again, to admire them, to love on them, God wants take His "clocks and vases" and polish them and shine them up because He wants to show off the beauty of His creation. He loves what He has made, He cherishes every piece! No "clock or vase" is hidden, He remembers every one He made. And even though some of them seem to be far from His reach looking from the other "clocks and vases" point of view. They are always but a Potter's Hand away from Him. He is the Maker and Rebuilder, the Creator and Repairer. He calls us to make a difference in their lives! Let us not stand by and watch other "clocks and vases" go off on these pointless and defeating roads as they seek a maker or repairer, but let us rise to the occasion as renewed, awakened and revived "clocks and vases" and point the way towards the one and only real Maker and Repairer; God!
