You are the Potter and I am the Clay

This weekend I helped out with my old youth group's retreat. To put it nicely, it was a long weekend. I kept worrying about how I was going to finish my homework or how I could minister to these kids. For a while it seemed like the discussions were going no where and I had no energy to do any homework. At the lowest point I decided to give it up to God. funny how when your are at the bottom all you can do is look up and guess who is at the top. I'll give you a hint, it's not a human, but it's GOD. Once i gave him my worries and problems, he was able to show me that he is not done molding me. Interestingly enough one of the major themes of the weekend was letting God hold and mold you. Here are some lyrics that really express the relationship between me and God.
**I decided not to post the whole song because the song is actually a love song. I just wanted to point out where I felt God talking to me...

"Learning How to Bend" by CArry Allan
I'm still learning how to pray
Trying hard not to stray
Try to see things your way
I'm still learning how to pray
I'm still learning how to trust
It's so hard to open up
And I'd do anything for us
I'm still learning how to trust

Chorus:
I'm still learning how to bend
How to let you in
In a world full of tears
We'll conquer all our fears
I'm still learning how to fly
I wanna take you higher
I'll be there till the end
I'll be your lover and your friend
I'm still learning how to bend

I'm just trying to understand
It's all in someone else's hands
There's always been a bigger plan
But I don't need to understand
