Summary
7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. 8 We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; 9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; 10 always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies. 11 For we who live are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. 12 So death is at work in us, but life in you.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome back friends. It is time for the morning mindset. You know one of the things I love |
| 0:08.6 | about the way that Jesus guides us in life is that he gives us wisdom progressively through the experiences |
| 0:16.2 | that we have in life and he applies them to our hearts so to speak. He takes the situation |
| 0:22.2 | and he expands it in our understanding and he shows us alongside |
| 0:26.6 | his word how truth is being exhibited to us in the situation so that we can grow in wisdom and so that we can |
| 0:35.5 | understand things. Now the reason I bring all that up is because I remember |
| 0:39.1 | when I was much much younger, I'm just over 50 years old right now. I remember thinking about old people, you know, in |
| 0:48.2 | quotations, you know, when you're a kid you think of everybody over the age of 30 as an old person, it seems. |
| 0:54.0 | And I remember thinking of old people and them complaining about physical ailments |
| 1:00.4 | or only speaking about certain topics all the time. |
| 1:03.1 | You know, politics seem to be one of those. |
| 1:05.2 | And I remember kind of characterizing them as silly |
| 1:08.1 | and I didn't understand why they were like that and all that. |

| 1:25.8 | on us personally. You see our focus is drawn to the things that are most pressing to us personally. |

| 1:36.6 | That's why kids talk about cartoons or video games |
| 1:40.0 | or their newest toy all the time. |
| 1:42.8 | It's because it's the thing that's most important to them at the time. |
