God's design is flawless, do you know that?!
He's created you in his image and He loves every little detail about you. He wraps you in His love and He holds you dearly! After all He thought about you even before you were born:
Psalm 139:13–14
"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb [...]."
Jeremiah 1:5
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart [...]"

Am Wochenende durfte ich mit meinem Pray&Clay Stand bei der @zoe_frauenkonferenz in Aarau in der Schweiz mit dabei sein.
Wie schön es war mit euch allen ins Gespräch zu kommen und ich freue mich, dass vieles, dass ihr hier im reel seht, ein neues Zuhause bei euch gefunden hat.

Last weekend I was granted the opportunity to be part at a women`s conference in Aarau, Switzerland.
Many of the things you see in this reel have now found a new home and it was such a pleasure talking to so many wonderful women on that day! #blessedandgrateful

Wenn der Brennofen noch zu heiß ist, muss man ab und an mal nachhelfen 😄
.
When the kiln is still too hot, you gotta figure out some hacks.

Gestern Abend wurde glasiert!
Erstmal ordentlich aufrühren und dann ab in die Glasur.
Last night it was time to glaze.
A good stir is essential! And then: let`s glaze!!

Den Schühbrand haben alle Sachen, bis auf einen Becher, der einen kleinen Riss hat, alles gut überlebt! Der Becher darf dann bei mir in meinen Gnadenschrank einziehen 🤭 jetzt fehlt nur noch die Glasur obendrauf!
.
#pray_and_clay #töpfern #vlog #brennofenausräumen
Der Schrühbrand wird jetzt auf 900°C aufgeheizt und läuft vmtl bis heute Abend!
Morgen wird glasiert und am Freitag kommen dann die Teile aus dem Ofen!
Wer noch keine großen Pläne für den 22. März hat, sollte sich unbedingt die @zoe_frauenkonferenz in Aarau vormerken, da gibt es nen ganzen Tag tolles Programm und unter anderem werdet ihr dort auch ein paar meiner Sachen kaufen können! 🙌🏻

Text reads:
I wrote this 2 years ago, but I didn`t feel like posting it...(too personal).
The last years have taught me though, that the insights of a person who wrestles with GOD`s promises and HIS character, can help/inspire someone tremendously... may it be a blessing for someone this year
so here it goes:
The last couple of weeks have been a struggle for me. The darkness, which the autumn weather brought, crept slowly up towards my heart and I found myself struggling with some personal issues.
More than ever I felt the need for light and encouragement, which I felt had all been depleted during some stormy seasons I had faced during my life... I cried out to God, but God seemed to stay silent.
I couldn`t understand it and the darkness kept on creeping into my heart.
I felt lost...
Somehow I could relate to the words Job uttered when he was at his lowest:
"For my sighing comes in place of my food, and my groanings flow forth like water. … I have no ease, I have no quietness; I cannot rest; turmoil has come upon me."
(Job 3:24,26)
But still, I threw myself and my doubts into his presence... my exhausted and hurt body curled up next beneath his feet. I dug my fingers into the hem of his garment - I didn`t let go. I insisted on his mercy, on keeping his promises.
I cited bible verses, because I wanted to believe it, although I couldn`t in this moment...
silence. frustration. desperation. cry...
I felt unheard and I wrestled with his promises and his character, I thought I knew, I thought I "deserved" to know...
I didn`t let go, although it seemed pointless... silence...no light at the end of the tunnel...nothing.
I felt lost -
I felt so far off, drifting away from him,
I felt like my prayers never even reached his ears.
But I kept on holding on - why didn`t he care? Did he care enough to show up?!? I asked myself pushing closer, whilst simultaneously drifting away in this stormy season...
... But God ...
Oh HIS powerful majesty
HE didn`t let go either...

Danke nochmal
@elisabeth.brenn für das tolle Tool! I love it! ☺️
My first voiceover!👋🏻
Sorry that it`s only in German, but here`s a quick English translation:
I`m showing you the Sgraffito technique today, it`s a technique I like to use on most of my pieces, because I think it`s such a beautiful and quick way to decorate pottery.
So basically you take a leather hard piece (leather hard means it`s stable in form but the surface is still a little moist) and choose a contrasting colour clay slip (liquid clay) to paint on the surface with.
After letting it dry a bit you can now scrape patterns and ornaments into the clay surface to reveal the other clay colour underneath the clay slip! Finished!!

I really need your help for this one:
My fruit bowl "Garden of Eden" is taking on shape.
.
BUT I haven`t decided on the glazes yet, maybe you could help me decide, I`m not sure if I should keep it simple with a white glaze on the red clay or if I should choose some decor glaze and highlight the flowers and branches/leaves with greens, yellows and reds etc.
.
For simple in white glaze and red clay comment ----> ☁️
For colourful decoration ----> 💐
.
I really can`t decide and I`d appreciate your help, guys!
Thanks
Big love 💕💕
