But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. —
While there are many talented and successful Christians in the world today, they are merely vessels for God's message of grace, hope, and power. Our focus should never be on the container for the message. Instead, what is most important is the integrity of the messenger no matter the situation, so that the message can be seen without distraction. God's power is what sustains us, not our own, we are simply a vessel, a tool, in the hands of the Lord.
Serving Him
Faithful to my Lord’s commands. I still would choose the bitter part; Serve with careful Martha’s hands And loving Mary’s heart.
.. Charles Wesley
“There are many of us that are willing to do great things for the Lord; but few of us are willing to do little things.”
. D.L. Moody
Scriptures for Anger
James 1:19-20
So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
Ecclesiastes 7:9
Do not hasten in your spirit to be angry,
For anger rests in the bosom of fools.
Proverbs 14:17
A quick-tempered man acts foolishly,
And a man of wicked intentions is hated.
Thoughts
. Never believe anything bad about anybody unless you positively know it to be true; never tell even that unless you feel that it is absolutely necessary—and that God is listening while you tell it. - Henry van Dyke
.That God is more near, more real and mighty, more full of love, and more ready to help every one of us than any one of us realizes, is the undying message of the Gospels. David S. Cairns
