Why keep going when life and faith feel overwhelming? In 2 Corinthians 4, Paul shows us that God puts His treasure in fragile vessels like us so that His power is revealed in our weakness, our afflictions display the life of Jesus, and our belief compels us to keep speaking hope. Endurance comes not from our strength but from the resurrection glory that far outweighs every struggle.

How do people know the gospel is real? In 2 Corinthians 2:14–3:18, Paul shows us that God makes His people the evidence—spreading the fragrance of Christ, living as letters written by the Spirit, and reflecting His glory with unveiled faces. Together these pictures remind us that our lives are meant to reveal Jesus clearly to a world that desperately needs Him.

Have you ever had someone assume the worst about your motives, even when your heart was clear? In today’s text, Paul shows us how clarity in Christ gives us confidence to stand firm when misunderstood, to keep our “yes” and “no” anchored in God’s bigger “Yes,” and to respond to hurt with grace. This clarity leads to unity, forgiveness, and a church that brings glory to God together.
