Devotion for the Third Monday in Advent

December 12, 2011 by Lillie 

Isaiah 29:15-16 (ESV)

15 Ah, you who hide deep from the Lord your counsel, whose deeds are in the dark, and who say, “Who sees us? Who knows us?” 16 You turn things upside down! Shall the potter be regarded as the clay, that the thing made should say of its maker, “He did not make me”; or the thing formed say of him who formed it, “He has no understanding”?

Lord God, wash away our pride and arrogance. You made us, and You understand us completely, ye we often act as if we think we know better than You. Remind us that You are the potter, and we are the clay. You formed us, and You have a plan for us. Show us the way You want us to go. In the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
