In Part Eleven of our Ink & Fire series, we asked:
“When do we trust God?” through Romans 9:1–24.
Here’s what we discovered:
The Potter Knows the Plan (v.20)
God’s plan was in place before your problem ever appeared.
When you know the Potter’s heart, you stop questioning His hand.
Trust in the unexpected leads to joy in the unexplainable.
The Potter Has the Power (vv.21–24)
Your value is not diminished because your assignment is different.
Before the breakthrough, there is a break off.
His shaping isn’t punishment—it’s preparation.
The Potter’s Plan Changes Your Story (vv.10–13)
Without fire, clay remains fragile.
The fire makes it functional.
God’s mercy turns failures into features.
He makes you His gallery of grace.
Here’s the anthem we carry forward:
Trust is not automatic—it’s trained.
And every test is an invitation to trust the Potter more deeply.
Catch the recap today and be reminded:
God’s ability to use you is always greater than your capacity to ruin yourself.
