Jars of Clay

Listen to 2 Corinthians Chapter 4 & 5 & 6
or read "A New Creation in Christ""

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

... Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
Here is another incredible parable of our relationship with God. This is a true story of two incredible people. A father and son relationship that is a picture to me of our own relationship with God the Father.

The story of Rick and Dick Hoyt also known as Team Hoyt is an incredible one. I would point out first that Rick, who is a quadriplegic and can't speak is a graduate of Boston University.

Hear are their short bio's published on their website Team Hoyt.

Rick was born in 1962 as a spastic quadriplegic, cerebral palsy, non-speaking person. The ability of his mind and person have always been strong, and his family have been hearty supporters of his quest for independence and inclusion in community activities, sports, school and the workplace. Rick is a graduate of Boston University.

Dick has recently retired as a lieutenant colonel in the air nation guard. He has served his country for over thirty-five years. Dick is a friend of the "Presidents Council on Fitness".
