Weak Vessels

Medicine comes in the form of a tablet, capsule, pill, or liquid. In these inheritantly weak forms, the medicines carry strong ingredients designed to do healing and curing within our bodies. Bullets are small and easily destroyed, but carry the power to destroy. Small seeds of grain grow into the food that transforms into energy and growth for our bodies. The point is that great power is often disguised in small or weak packages.

II Corinthians 4:7 says, “But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us.” Our bodies are weak and decaying throughout life. God uses these weak vessels to demonstrate His power through us. Those who believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior have the Spirit of God within them. As such, we constitute the most powerful people on the planet.

After 16 years of vocational ministry, God has called me to a simpler ministry. Now I just proclaim His truth simply to those who are open to hear it. God is speaking through His Word and His creation.
