The Apostle Paul calls us Jars of Clay (2 Corinthians 4:7). As followers of Jesus we must allow the Word of God to fill us with it's message of Truth and Grace. In this way, we become a "vessel for honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work" (2 Timothy 2:21).

B. An example from my everyday life:

2. In what situation did I fail to show decisiveness?

3. What problem in my life could God use to build decisiveness?

5. How can I develop this quality in my life?

F. A scripture verse I will memorize to help build decisiveness into my life: James 1:8.
