Shine

Meditate on verse 6 this morning from 2 Cor 4

For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness,"made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

Look at the repetition of "light" and "shine". We have His light in our hearts and by that we know the glory of God. Amazing -- we know the glory of God and we see God's glory in Christ. And then because we have this wonderful light verse 7 reminds us that it is all about God:

But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
