“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.” 2 Corinthians 4:7 . “The greatness of the things, together with the weakness of those to whom they are granted, reveal the might of God. The expression “earthen” hints to the weakness of our mortal nature and fragile body, which is not any better than earthen vessels, that would easily break.” St. John Chrysostom #treasure #earthenvessels #Godspower #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
