                       The Golden Vase


I have purposed that you be made whole! And everything you have been
through, the worst things, the best things, like My cross, are to be
supernaturally transformed into gold by My hands. For I will take that 
gold and like clay, work it perfectly into every crack, every hole, every 
fissure, to complete you, a vessel fit for the master's use. You will no 
longer be tricked into seeing your flaws, but transformed to see the gold, 
what I have made. 

Rejoice, for the promise is at hand. The promise of broken people made 
whole -- so whole you become usable. You will be filled with love, 
liquid love, God's love, that when the world looks it will see Jesus and 
His love. And they will say, "My he/she has changed. He/she used to be 
such a mess but now is so beautiful." And the gold in the cracks and holes 
and fissures will be so beautiful and so attractive, and so humble, and 
so attainable to them. 

For it is no longer you who lives, but Me who lives in you and through 
you.
