How do we know that God can mold our lives for His purposes?
Answered in 1 source
We know God can mold our lives, as He has the ultimate authority and plan for us, which He outlines in scripture (Ephesians 2:10).
The assurance that God can effectively mold and shape our lives stems from His sovereign will as revealed in Scripture. Ephesians 2:10 states that we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works that He prepared in advance for us. This indicates that God not only creates us but actively works within us to fulfill His divine purposes. Just like the potter shapes the clay with a defined outcome in mind, God has specific intentions for each believer, tailored to bring about His glory and our growth in faith. Trusting in Him implies acknowledging His right and power to shape us as He sees fit.
