1. Between the SOIL and the SOUL, something happened
“the breath of life”. – Genesis 2:7

“Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” 22 And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive anyone’s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.” – John 20:21-23 (niv)

Breathed IN and breathed ON.

God started it ……………..the Holy Spirit Continues it —— We are stewards over it!
He who began a GOOD work in you!

1 Cor 4:7 – But we have this treasure in jars of clay.

The potter shapes us during:
After a crisis – Seclusion – Battle – Pain – As adjustments are needed

This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: 2 “Go down to the potter’s house, and there I will give you my message.” 3 So I went down to the potter’s house, and I saw him working at the wheel. 4 But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him. Jeremiah 18:1-5

, “The man they call Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. He told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed, and then I could see.” – John 9:11

How to be shaped by God

Be TOUCHABLE

Be TEACHABLE

Stay Centered IN CHRIST will.

Adjust with the Potter.

And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. – Acts 2:42-47
