Well, you have a guarantee from the Master Potter, "not beyond what you can bear." Oh, He might take you to the edge, but He'll never allow you to go over. God will let the heat make you stronger, but He'll never leave His masterpiece in the oven too long. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/better-when-heated-6720 2012-10-12T09:38:38-05:00 The breaking of the man is the making of the man. It's not because God doesn't love you, it's because He does. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/good-wood-6657 2012-07-18T11:20:08-05:00 The fire turns spiritual wimps into spiritual warriors. So, rejoice as you see what you are becoming or can become through heat-treating, and only through heat-treating. You are becoming a heavy hitter in the hands of Almighty God. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Peter%203:11-13&version=NIV 2009-09-18T12:29:38-05:00 The Bible teaches that the earth will be destroyed one day by fire, and that nothing will be able to withstand the heat. Knowing that the world will one day be destroyed and remade, it's our job to remain faithful to God while we live.
