FOR THE QUIET HOUR
The Potter and His Clay 1 went down to tbe potter 's houso, and, behold, be wrougbt his work on tbe wbeels. And wben tbe vessel tbat he made of tbe clay was marred in tbe hand of tbe potter, he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it. Then tbe word of tbe Lord came to me, saying, Behold,
as tbe clay in Ihe poffer's hand, so aTe ye in my hand, 0 house of Israeb (Jeremiah XYlli; 3-6.) If men would but let their Maker bandle tbem as the potter bis clay, yielding tbemselves in respondent motion and submissive' bopeful action witb tbe turning of tbe wbeel, tbey would ere long find tbemselves able to Welcome every pressure of tbat hand upon tbem, even wben it was f elt in pain, and sometimes not only to believe But to recognise the divine end in view, tbe bringing of a son into glory. (George MacDon*1''.)
