Who Is Going To Mold Me?
Back in the 80’s when I was growing up, there’s always a group of people who could influence my way of doing things. They were, unfortunately, my high-school friends. The Church didn’t have a strong influence. In fact, it was quite passive. In addition, the media on TV and radio has a strong influence, they were coolest thing to see and hear. In today’s fast paced and Internet-connected society, it’s quick & easy to pass around information. I obtained ideas, opinions, and commentaries faster today than I ever did back then. Those are the strong influencers now.
My character was molded by someone else.
But it’s time to turn to creator, who molded me from his own image (Genesis 1:27), to set me back on track to the Heaven. It’s time to develop convictions (Romans 12:2) that deeply motivates me to do the right thing for God and for love. It’s time to develop Christ-like character, and develop habits that bring fruits of the spirit (Galatians 5:22-23).
Beautiful Lord, Wonderful savior
I know for sure all of my days are held in your hands
Crafted into your perfect plansYou gently called me into your presence
Guiding me by Your Holy Spirit
Teach me dear Lord to live all of my life
Through your eyesI’m captured by your holy calling
Set me apart. I know you’re drawing me to yourself
lead me, Lord. I prayOh Take me, mold me, use me, fill me
I give my life to the potter’s handOh Call me, guide me, lead me, walk beside me
I give my life to the potter’s handYou gently call me into your presence
Guiding me by your holy spirit
Teach me dear lord to live all of my life through your eyesI’m captured by your holy calling
Set me apart. I know you’re drawing me to yourself
lead me, Lord. I prayOh Take me, mold me, use me, fill me
I give my life to the potter’s handOh Call me, guide me, lead me, walk beside me
I give my life to the potter’s hand
