2 Corinthians 4:6-8
Worldwide English (New Testament)
6 God said, `Let light shine in the darkness.' And he has let light shine in our hearts too. He gave us light that shows how bright and wonderful God is. We see this light when we look at the face of Christ.
7 This is something of great value within us, but we are like pots made of earth and clay. This power is greater than any other power. But it comes from God, not from us.
8 We have much trouble, but we do not give up. We are in hard places, but help always comes.

7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay(D) to show that this all-surpassing power is from God(E) and not from us. 8 We are hard pressed on every side,(F) but not crushed; perplexed,(G) but not in despair;
