The Potter

A young 👦 boy sat in his yard 😢 crying.  He clutched in his hands the new wagon he just received for his fifth 🎂 birthday.

But something didn't seem right.  There were 💔 broken pieces from when he dropped it.  Things would never be happy again.

Just then footsteps could be heard approaching.  A new neighbor came to see what was wrong.  The little boy showed the wagon.

He explained that it was a gift from his brother in the military.  He began to cry again.  But now he ruined everything.

The man 😃 smiled brightly.  He told the young boy that everything would be fine.  He asked if he could borrow the 🚚 wagon for a few days.  The boy agreed.

The few days went by.  The young boy got up and went to the door.  He was hoping to see the nice man.  Instead he saw his wagon waiting for him.

It looked brand new!  The little boy wanted to thank the man.  He asked his parents about the new neighbor.

Sometimes we feel so defeated when we think things are broken or we're broken.  But then the Potter takes control and creates a masterpiece!

But when they said there wasn't one he knew what to do.  He went to kneel by the side of his bed.  He said three simple words... Thank you Jesus.
