A few weeks or months ago Lillydipper talked about the Potter’s house in his Word. And I remember at the end of it he prayed that the Lord would shape him into a form that was pleasing to the Heavenly Father.

But what good are shapes, even perfectly formed, if they don’t have a purpose? What good is a quill if it doesn’t have ink to write? Or a sweater that is perfect in shape but made out of gossamer thread that doesn’t keep you warm? I think a shape or form that is pleasing to our Lord’s eyes, would be someone that spreads joy and love, inspires others, sets an example that others can follow.

And if that’s the case, Then the Big Man Upstairs really knocked it out of the park when he formed good ol’ Lillydipper on that Potter’s Wheel up in the sky. How many times has he picked up the Q on short notice? Been an example of perseverance during his many… many… rehab stints? Kept us positive and amused with his stories? Inspired us with his Words?

I don’t claim to have any inside knowledge of the Sky Q’s ways, or thoughts… but I would bet my bottom dollar that when Lillydipper came off that potter’s wheel, instead of packing it back in a lump and trying again, the Lord nodded at his work, smiled and said: “Well… besides giving this fellow a bad hip… and a bad knee. And another bad knee. And a bad shoulder. And another bad hip. This one is not bad… not bad at all.”

5 Thoughts for 5 Minutes | Songs being played during this time (“Snowfall” by Øneheart | “Spirit Lead Me Where My Trust is Without Borders” by Raspo)

1 | Clear the Noise

– Close our eyes and carry the mind to heart-centered
– Clearing your head with all the noise around you
– Find Yourself where you are at the Present

2 | Visualize

– Visualize | Where you are.. What you want to do with your life.. who do you want to be tomorrow.. what needs to change

3 | Present Day Question

– If death stood in front of you would you hug it?
– Identify why, what, and who is bringing you to that.. address the situation

4 | Muhammad Ali Poem

“Friendship is a priceless gift that cannot be bought nor sold, but its value is far greater than a mountain made of gold. For gold is cold and lifeless. It can neither see nor hear. In times of trouble, it’s powerless cheer. It has no ears to listen, no heart to understand. It cannot bring you comfort or reach out a helping hand. So when you ask God for a gift, be thankful if sends not diamonds, pearls, or riches but the love of real, true friends”

• Ponder on who those figures are that God has given you

5 | Why do we close our eyes?

“Why do we close our eyes when we pray, when we cry, when we kiss, when we dream, because the most beautiful things in our life are not seen but felt by the heart”

• Clean up the mind and come back to life at the present moment.. still at heart-centered remain calm and reduce the noise
