"But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.  We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; we are always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body."  II Corinthians 4:7-10
