"And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hands of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it." Jeremiah 18:4 Putting the Clay to the Wheel… After the clay has been cleaned, it is ready for the "wheel." The potter starts...
Mackenson is a sweet, quiet and hardworking little boy. I found him when we were in a Mobile Medical Clinic in the mountains. I was shocked to see this poor mountain man cradling a “toddler” in his arms who had severe malnutrition. The child’s legs and arms were “splitting” open because he had Kwashiorkor malnutrition,...
Djonsly first came to us with his mother about two years ago. His eye had been forced out of its socket and was just “hanging there.” His mother, a devout Christian, began to pray about where to take her son. Like the woman in the Bible who had the “issue of blood,” she had tried many...
“Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hands, so are ye in mine hand..." Jeremiah 18:6 "Cleaning the Clay" or "Cleaning us Up!" This must be the hardest job. Now, as the potter is kneading the clay and rolling it between his hands, he is looking for any small pebble, or a tiny twig, or...

Yesterday, Jessica, one of our missionaries, and myself went to "Miracle Village" with some clothes made by our partners in the States. Just look at these precious little girls with "brand-new dresses!!!" (Some of the little ones were not smiling because they were afraid of the white ladies!!! Ha! I can understand that!!!) Their mothers...
"The Potter and the Clay…" In Jeremiah 18, God gave a commandment to Prophet, Jeremiah, to go down to the "potter's house." God was going to speak to him and give the Prophet a lesson... "Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels." Jeremiah 18:3 A...
Lionel is a very different young boy. He is 13 and is in 6th grade. He has emotional problems that stem from his evil father. About five years ago, we were called to the clinic to see this young boy who had been tortured by his father. For some reason, his father had gotten angry...
