But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. — 2 Corinthians 4:7

Even though there are many talented and successful Christians in the world today, they are just vehicles for God’s message of grace, hope, and power. We should never pay attention to the way the message is sent. Instead, the most important thing is that the messenger always tells the truth, no matter what, so that the message can be seen without being messed up. God’s power, not our own, is what keeps us alive. We are just tools in the Lord’s hands.
