Moldable

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. Then the word of the Lord came to me:
"O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter does?" declares the Lord. "Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel. Jeremiah 18:4-6


Maria has been at a retreat for TEC(Teens Encountering Christ) since Friday morning. John & I went to a program tonight (Sunday) to pick her up. We were so excited to see her. The verse above was their theme verse for the weekend. She really enjoyed her small group - Mooing for the Master? They called themselved "The Cows" and they had a lot of good discussions. These kids -64 candidates and 64 student workers - had a ton of enthusiasm and energy which they displayed in their 2 hour worship program.

Julia,

Katie was at TEC too--as a worker. She loves it! She's gone twice as a worker now, and she actually paid her own way this time, which tells you how much she likes it. Hope Maria gets as much out of it as Katie does.

I started blogging this weekend too! Two entries as of today--annetteselden.blogspot.com. I've joined the ranks!
