We hold this treasure in earthen vessels, that the surpassing power may be of God and not from us. – 2 Cor 4:7


we are earthen vessels
molded from dust and water
sometimes air dried
sometimes fired
in the kiln of the world

we sit empty
until the power of God
flows into us

even then
we are still useless
until we’re tipped over
to spill the treasure
or broken open
to reveal His power
