I read this in the January 2011 Ensign and loved the thoughts that it inspired.
"There are many vessels that are destroyed after they have been molded and shaped. Why? Because they are not contented with the shape the potter has given them, but straightway put themselves into a shape to please themselves; therefore they are beyond understanding what God designs, and they destroy themselves by the power of their own agency, for this is given to every man and woman, to do just as they please... Now suppose I would subject myself enough, the hands of the potter,... He would make me into a vessel of honor."
Heber C. Kimball April 2, 1854
