Jeremiah and other prophets used actions as well as words as a way to deliver a prophetic message. Perhaps the most famous is his trip to the potter’s house where he saw the clay molded and remolded into the form the potter wanted. Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, house of Israel. What a wonderful reminder that God isn’t finished with us yet. God continues to work with us on our way to becoming who we were made to be. However, the clay, once fired, cannot be reshaped. Our danger comes when we become set in our ways. We should never say “that’s just the way I am” as if God has given up on us.
