First thoughts

All I am and ever hope to be is summed up in desiring to give glory to the One who made me and then made me anew. His light shines brightly; mine is only a poor reflection of His glory. As Paul said in his second recorded letter to the Corinthians, "But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us." I am imperfect; He is perfect. I fellowship with other imperfect brethren; our fellowship is not because we are perfect, but because He is.
