Human propensity


 2 Corinthians 4:6-7

For it is the God who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

But we have this treasure in clay jars, so that it may be made clear that this extraordinary power belongs to God and does not come from us.


Some days I wish 

that I didn’t have feet of clay

Then, perhaps, I wouldn’t f**k things up so much

Other days, I catch a hold of myself

when I’m trying to single-handedly save the world

and I breathe a sigh of relief

that it’s not down to me

And I’m sure the world is glad, too

With that insight

I will carry on

using for good the power that is mine

and leaving the saving of the universe

to God

whose light shines in the darkness
