Eternal Exchange

Romans 9:21 

21 Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

 

Eternal exchange

 

Nothing much left but the crying, sin claimed another victim again

It seems there’s a constant dying. Is this really God’s plan?

Why are we always denying as we seem locked up in sin’s den?

Instead of grieving or crying we exchange the now for the then

 

Repetitious state of denial … our flesh's leading the way

Everyone is now on trial … an acceptable excuse for the day

Never to admit it as vile and dead in spirit ... we'll hope and pray

for the deliverance of our vial … that’s just brittle and dried up clay
