“But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, ut not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be mnifested in our bodies. … So we do not lose heart. Though outer self is wastinf away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.”(2 Corinthians 4:7-16)
