Scripture says that the vessel was 'marred'. Isaiah 45:9 "Woe to those who quarrel with their Maker… woe to the pot that contends with the potter and questions whether or not God knows what He is doing. " God has a plan for our character and He has a plan for our career. The created cannot always see the areas in their lives that need improvement. My soul was weary, and my pride Was wounded deep; to Heaven I cried, 'God grant me peace or I must die;' The dumb stars glittered no reply. Even though the clay would mar in His hands, He would desire to remake the vessel rather than destroy it. It is a flat wheel that is turned in a circular motion, thus allowing the potter to use his hands to form and fashion a lump of clay into a beautiful vessel. That is how we remember one another.

Naomi committed that sin. Dr. Boreham could look at a tree, see a telephone post, and then discourse on the miracle of communication. God smashes us down with "Lord, if my brother keeps on sinning against me, how many times do I have to forgive him? We tell ourselves anyone can work hard, pull themselves up by their bootstraps and become a millionaire. When we yield ourselves to being placed on the center of the wheel – God's will, He is able to pull and stretch us, mold and form us, protect and purge us of anything that shouldn't be there. The potter could have thrown the clay away at this point. Must yield to God's hand and be taken away. Because of his unpopularity his bank account is meagre. And as we come into contact with those who suffer, let us tell them that that is a part of the Potter's plan and that He can be glorified in that way if only the will of God is willingly submitted to. The Condition of the Clay. I sometimes wonder what kind of a vessel he made the second time. Although the clay had frustrated his plan he believed in trying again. He had a unique testimony and a gifted personality and as he went on and on his fame spread and wherever he went multitudes would gather together. Although it is a piece of clay, we know that the glory of the Lord can be found in the earthen vessel, but let us never forget that the body is simply clay and not give it too much attention.
It's rather amazing what you can do with a simple piece of clay, as you shape it with your fingers and your hands, turning it into something beautiful and useful. There appeared a most delicate vase. One that depicts the purpose and character of the Potter himself.
I suppose if the clay could speak, it would say something like this, "Why throw me into the mill' why subject me to this excruciating experience? But he didn't have much to say. The Book of Jeremiah is no exception to this. Sometimes the message comes to Jeremiah in direct tones. Roy Riegels looked up with tears in his eyes and said, "Coach, I can't do it. We have a God who loves variety. Since that time I've gotten away from God, and I'm a miserable man. It is His love that will not let us go. What did this simple event teach Jeremiah about God & His people? It refers to God's personal name He gave to Moses out of the burning bush when Moses asked who he should say had sent him to set God's people, the Israelites, free from Egypt. God Has A Plan For Every Life. 1 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor? "
No matter what our age may be, or what the cause of our variety of ugliness might be, God wants to save us.

Some people reject Christ and spend eternity in hell--but that isn't God's desire. Early in the game Georgia Tech fumbled. But you must yield to His hand. I guess the number one thing that characterizes the people of Jeremiah's day is they made light of spiritual things. God wants us to become beautiful and useful vessels, not to carry water or hold food, but to carry the good news of his love, forgiveness, care and purpose for humanity. The old-fashioned potter's wheel used in Jeremiah's day was a simple and somewhat crude affair. We aren t told what Jeremiah was doing at the time God spoke to him but good chances are he is on his knees in prayer.
