Treasure in Jars of Clay

2 Corinthians 4:1-18


Paul describes to the church in Corinth that they are like jars of clay, to show that the glory comes not from their own strength, but from Christ's power in them. As with us, our fragility and brokenness are beautiful because God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. Are you willing to take courage on your journey of faith and entrust that God will use you - in all your brokenness, doubt and shortcomings - for something beautiful?
