2 Corinthians 4:7-12

We hold this priceless treasure in our earthen vessels to show that the glorious power within us is from GOD - it is not our own. We are pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; knocked down, but not out. We are carrying in our body the death of JESUS, so that the life of JESUS may also be revealed in us. For we who are living are always being exposed to death because of JESUS, so that the life of JESUS may be revealed in our mortal bodies. So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
