2 Corinthians 4:7

MSG

NIV

7 If you only look at us, you might well miss the brightness. We carry this precious Message around in the unadorned clay pots of our ordinary lives. That's to prevent anyone from confusing God's incomparable power with us.
7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
