Good morning, Finest FRiends. With the beginning of this week, The Holidays are officially over, and things will soon return to some sort of normalcy for all. Our hostesses have all been busier than usual, along with everyone else, and in order to give them a breather this first month of the new year, I suggested that they might want to rerun one of their favorite threads from last year - one that perhaps they posted when many of our regulars were out of town, or any other of their choosing. It is also their choice to rerun or not to rerun!

Happy New Year 2004, and God Bless America!

This is soooooooo cute, Billie!! I will be back tomorrow to welcome the new Finest siblings on the block and bid adieu to Free (who I know isn't actually going anywhere, thank goodness!).

I see you have re-done the welcome graphic and added more Finest pups to the line............John is still crowding me and I still don't have eyelashes. :-( LOL.

Bedtime here. I will be back tomorrow.

The Great Potter

Read: Jeremiah 18:1-6

As the clay is in the potter's hand, so are you in My hand. —Jeremiah 18:6

Bible In One Year: Genesis 16-17; Matthew 5:27-48


One definition of the word attitude is "the angle of approach" that an aircraft takes when landing. Author Chris Spicer writes: "Attitudes are to life as the angle of approach is to flying." He adds, "Attitude is the way we choose to think about things; attitudes will cause us to react and behave in a certain way." He also says that attitudes are not inborn or accidental. They are learned and absorbed reactions; therefore they can be changed.

During my thirties, the Lord began convicting me of my wrong thinking toward myself, others, and life—negative, self-pitying, and bitter thinking. With the help of God's Word, I recognized my need for change in three main areas: my attitudes, actions, and reactions. But I feared I couldn't change. One day I read in Jeremiah 18 how the potter refashioned some marred clay (which is what I felt like) into a different vessel, as it pleased the potter. What I couldn't do, my great Potter could! I only needed to be cooperative clay.

Today this vessel is far from finished. But as I put myself in the Potter's hands, He keeps working on me and shaping my attitudes and actions. I call them Christ-attitudes, Christ-actions, and Christ-reactions.

The great Potter can do the same for you. —Joanie Yoder

Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Thou art the Potter, I am the clay;
Mold me and make me after Thy will,
While I am waiting, yielded and still. —Pollard
