All of the pumpkins, regardless of size, shape or color take approximately 120 days to grow. For some reason, I thought that the smaller pumpkins were baby pumpkins maybe only 30 days old and the larger ones took a year or two to grow. I was completely wrong. It’s not the soil, nor the time, but the seed that determines the size, color and shape of the pumpkin! 

God is the one that determines our purpose. He is the One who shapes us for the purpose of His glory. He is the one who works in and through us to accomplish His will. Our job is to grow into the person that He has designed us to be. That is why becoming envious of our neighbors is so detrimental. God has designed in a completely unique way. You are an original. There has never been another you! Live like an original today.

^{Jeremiah 18:1-4}

¹ This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD : ² "Go down to the potter’s house, and there I will give you my message." ³ So I went down to the potter’s house, and I saw him working at the wheel. ⁴ But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him.
