"Now we have this treasure in clay jars, so that this extraordinary power may be from God and not from us.
We are afflicted in every way but not crushed; we are perplexed but not in despair; we are persecuted but not abandoned; we are struck down but not destroyed.
We always carry the death of Jesus in our body, so that the life of Jesus may also be displayed in our body."
Made of Clay began as a quiet nudge from God in 2024.
I had just started finding my way back to church when I heard a sermon on 2 Corinthians 4. At the time, I didn’t fully understand why those verses hit me so hard. I just knew they were meant for something. God planted them in my heart, and as He always does, He began to grow something far bigger than I could have imagined.
The passage talks about us as jars of clay. Cracked. Imperfect. Pressed. Yet carrying a treasure that doesn’t come from us, but from Christ. Those words stayed with me during a season where I felt buried under the weight of the world. I was living with one foot in and one foot out. I wanted a relationship with Jesus, but not at the cost of my friendships, my habits, or my selfish desires.
I felt surrounded by my own dirt.
At first, the idea was simple. I wanted a clay jar tattoo as a reminder that even though I am imperfect, bruised, and sometimes in despair, I am made new through Christ. That the cracks don’t disqualify us. They allow His light to shine through.
What started as a tattoo idea and a few rough sketches quickly became something deeper.
Made of Clay became a calling.
God used those verses to show me that He works in the mess. He molds the broken. He restores the lost. He removes desires, addictions, doubts, and fear when we finally surrender them to Him. Our momentary, light affliction is no match for our Maker.

And this isn’t just about me.
It’s about you.
It’s about the stranger who notices your shirt and feels curious enough to ask what it means.
It’s about the mother in a remote village who hears the gospel for the first time and is given a warm meal.
It’s about the child who doesn’t have much, but receives toys and a Bible at Christmas and learns they are deeply loved.
It’s about the girl who struggles with her body image and needs the reminder that she is made in His image.
This is about all of us.
Imperfect. Cracked. Still being molded.
Yet chosen. Restored. Purpose-filled.
We are all Made of Clay.
Children of the Most High, carrying a light meant to be shared.
Thank you for being here. I love you, and I am praying for you.
