Why does God use broken vessels to shine His light?

The use of broken vessels symbolizes our own brokenness and need for Christ. In 2 Corinthians 4:7, it states that we have a treasure in earthen vessels, which signifies the gospel message of Christ shining through our weakness. When we acknowledge our brokenness, we depend on God's strength, not our own. This arrangement serves a greater purpose: to ensure that all glory and recognition are directed towards God, as He accomplishes the work of salvation through imperfect individuals and circumstances.
