I painted this little bunny and fired him in a kiln. When in the
bisque stage the pieces are very fragile, but become very sturdy
after they are glazed and fired, somewhat like us Christians
who've been tempered by" the refiner's fire!"
THE REFINER'S FIRE
Have you been tempered by the refiner's fire?
Has God refined you with trials today?
Do you feel His touch
As you travel along the way?
Have you been refined in the fire?
Is pain a constant companion to you?
Do you live from moment to moment
Just trying the day to get through?
Have you been in the refiner's fire,
Having lost a loved one so dear?
Know that God sees your tears
And He wants to be near.
We're all refined by life's fires;
They make us stronger, you see
And we will never be far from His sight,
As He refines you and me!
