| Yesterday, my wife and I were in Hohr-Grenzhausen, Germany. This area is famous for salt-firing pottery and stoneware. This is a special process where the firing kiln uses an open flame with wood, oil or gas, and, when the highest temperature is reached, common table salt is added. This crystallizes and fuses with the clay, giving it a special texture and quality. As my wife purchased a few small items from the factory shop, I was reminded of the following verses, “But now, O Lord, Thou art our Father; we are the clay, and Thou our Potter; and we all are the work of Thy hand” (Isaiah 64:8). “Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels … . Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in Mine hand” (Jeremiah 18:3, 6) |
