Have Thine Own Way, Lord

Have Thine Own Way, Lord

A study of the classic hymn and the importance of an attitude of surrender to the Lord.

Overview

Written by a discouraged missionary, "Have Thine Own Way, Lord" has become an abiding prayer of yielding to the Lord. Her words teach us that we are clay in the Master Potter's hands. Although it may be challenging, when we submit to the Potter's touch, we experience the joy of his perfect will.

Why is God depicted as a Potter? What is the first step in surrendering to the Lord? What results will we see because of our trust and submission?
