"Dealing With Cracked Pots"
John 8:3-11
June 1, 2008
One year we had a family member shipped us a very fancy, beautifully crafted Korean vase as a Christmas present. It was a gorgeous vase, but it just had one tiny little problem: the vase was shattered into a hundred pieces by the time it got to us. Who knows how it got that way – was it broken because poor packaging or rough handling, or maybe a little bit of both? Regardless of the cause, what could have been a beautiful keep sake was shattered and totally worthless.
Although we rebel against the idea of viewing people as being “totally worthless,” the truth of the matter is that a lot of lives that could be beautiful, are cracked and shattered by the effects of poor choices in life (what the Bible calls sin), and/or the rough handling they have received over the years. In a way, their lives are like “cracked pots.”
O.K., we are surrounded by lots of “cracked pots” both inside and outside of church. How should we, as God’s children, deal with “cracked pots?”
