The Potter’s Hands – We are in a series of Sundays during which we are exploring the Book of Jeremiah, and in today’s scripture, God tells Jeremiah to go to a potter’s house where he witnesses the potter re-working a clay vessel whose clay had spoiled. God uses this to illustrate to Jeremiah God’s intent to re-work Israel, possibly destroying it if Israel doesn’t listen to his word and turn from its evil ways. God had initially brought these people out of Egypt and to the Promised Land, living as a community in the kingdom of God. But in the intervening time they had turned to their own rulers, set up kings, and the people had split into Judah and the Northern Kingdom. God wants them to return to being a beloved community with God at the center and nobody left out. What might Jeremiah call us to be and do in our day? Are we not to be the church with everyone having a place at the table? Are we not called to be kind and generous to everyone? Jesus said that when we do these things to the least of these, we do them to him.
