earthen vessels
flawed, faulty
stained, cracked
a strange place
in which to store
treasure
the treasure
of Divine light
at first glance
these vessels seem
like ordinary
and common
things
but upon further inspection
one is blinded
blinded by Divine love
by Divine redemption
by Divine light
streaming through the cracks
illuminating all around
i am one
of the earthen vessels
flawed, faulty
stained, cracked
yet God chose
to pour
His blinding
redeeming
forever-changing
LIGHT
into me
Lord, help me shine Your light
through the very cracks
that seem like defects
to all but You
help me
to illuminate for others
the path that leads
to You
thinking about 2 Corinthians 4
