But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not us. 2 Corinthians 4:7
Attempting to carry something of value in a broken container is counterintuitive. Yet it’s amazing that God chooses to use broken people like myself to carry the essence of Himself.

Excellent Wanda, so enjoyable.
Yvonne,
It is amazing isn't it? That the Lord would chose to use us – broken as we are – for His glory! Thank you, Lord.
Am feeling pretty broken tonight…so grateful for a reminder that He can still use broken vessels.
WOW – never thought about it that way. Thank you. Great one.
very cool! thanks for posting this today!
Wanda, your words bring me right back to my meditation early this morning: "If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself." – 2 Timothy 2:13
Beautifully worded. Thank you.
I love this photo verse! Such true words, we are broken vessels

Amen! very beautiful words you've shared 🙂

Loved this picture –
And yes, God works in counterintuitive ways. His Wisdom seems foolish to the world. That's at least ONE of the reasons I love Him so…
Those broken containers?
They're still broken, but Jesus sealed them with His Blood and they are filled to abundance with the Holy Spirit!
GOD BLESS!
Amen! I really loved this, Wanda…
Great post and reminder of the human condition~xXx
This is how I have been feeling these past few days. Thank you Wanda for posting such a great post. Blessings.
I'm so glad also that He uses broken vessels or where would I be.
So broken yet worthy to be a vessel for God. I want to be willing and ready.
That's me!
