To all my brothers and sisters in Yeshua, please do not be discouraged as to your standing in God's Presence as He is not a respecter of persons! (Acts 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: 10:35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. )
God has made me an earthen vessel so I'm not to boast in pride regarding anything I do but rather boast in Him and what He has done for me! He has saved me from my sinful nature and provided for me a sacrifice for my sins and to Him I owe my all!
(Romans 9:20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? 9:21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? )
I thank God for my infirmity and beg He not take it away as in my weakness I am closer in His presence then ever! I know now what King David meant when He said, (Psalm 51:11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.) I am glad to be a simple earthen vessel as long as I'm in His presence! (2Corinthians 4:7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. )
Therefore I am glad to be and earthen vessel and the dishonour that goes along with the simple task I've been given. (2Timothy 2:20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 2:21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work. )
Aspire not to be a vessel of honour but rather aspire to be in His presence for eternity! (Revelation 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. )
Praised be the Lord God Almighty!
Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ).
