Kiln Firing


Today I am firing some stoneware cameos and it really got me to thinking.

God is the potter and we are the clay.

To make clay effective it must go through a firing process which strenghtens it and makes it durable and useful.

yup we must suffer so we can become strong effective servants

GOD is so good!! HE is right with us when we suffer
and our suffering will never be greater than HE and we can bear together

The firing process can be challenging as we discussed. I just know that you will get the temperature right once you get those cones. In life we also do go through the molding process as you mentioned. Be blessed, sis. You are such a talented artist. Your cameo's are as beautiful as you.

Hi, Anita. Good post. I think I need some more "firing". Have a good day. Steve

Shaped and molded in the Potter's hands I am happy to be "fired" in His kiln of mercy, goodness, and love. Love in Christ Jesus, Anita.

Well I am still having problems with the firing process, I called the kiln expert and he gave me some tips and hints. If at first you don't succeed try try again I suppose.
Gonna keep on trying till I get it right, hopefully soon I can post some pics of the pieces I've made.
Thanks for all the encouragement ya'll
