“Like the apostle Paul, we, too, must reject any confidence in our own abilities in ministry. The truth is that our brilliance, eloquence, personality and strength will not carry us very far in the ministry. They may move people in a shallow sense for a very brief time, but if God accomplishes through us those things which last for eternity, our only basis for hope and confidence will be the eternal resources of the Christ who has called us, who lives within us and who is our sufficiency for all that God has set before us.”
