The Pottery Metaphor: Understanding the Value of Human Life

In this powerful message, we explore the profound truth that all life is valued in the hand of the Potter - our Creator God. Through the metaphor of a potter and clay from Jeremiah 18, we're reminded that each of us is intentionally designed by God, with no life being a mistake or accident. Even when we're marred by sin, God doesn't give up on us but continues to reshape and remake us. This truth applies not only to our individual lives but also to the sanctity of all human life, from conception to natural death. As we reflect on this, we're challenged to see ourselves and others through God's eyes, recognizing the inherent worth in every person as bearers of God's image. How might this perspective transform our self-view and our treatment of others?
