"But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves" - 2 Corinthians 4:7

Earthen vessels, jars of clay, ceramic pots.  So often filled with distractions, misguidance, confusion, and pain.  And yet vessels, jars, and pots that are the object of the Father's particular choice.  A choice not brought on by sudden extremity or desperate need.  But rather a choice of predetermined planning and predestined effect. 

The world so often sees in us only clay, dust, at best fired mud.  But to be chosen by Him makes us the most priceless vases in His collection.

Ephesians 1:4 will be the center of our worship thought at Philadelphia this week.  But wherever you find yourself, wherever the providence of God leads you, I pray that you and I will recognize the value in ourselves that the Father has seen in us from before the "foundation of the world." 

Blessings, in Christ,

Glenn
