The story in children’s words

A young man named Elihu spoke to Job and his friends. He said that God is always fair and never does wrong. God sees everything people do, and no one can hide from Him in the dark. Kings and poor people are all the same to God, because He made them all with His own hands. Paul wrote that the good news about Jesus is like a treasure kept in plain clay pots. Paul and his friends were pressed hard on every side and knocked down, but God never let them be crushed or destroyed. They carried the life of Jesus in their weak bodies so that others could see Him. We may be weak like clay pots, but the treasure inside us is Jesus, and His power is greater than all our trouble.
