Things That Cannot Be Seen

Scripture:

16 That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day. 17 For our present troubles are quite small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us an immeasurably great glory that will last forever! 18 So we don’t look at the troubles we can see right now; rather, we look forward to what we have not yet seen. For the troubles we see will soon be over, but the joys to come will last forever. (2 Corinthians 4:16-18 NLT)

I live in a world that is so visibly full of all its troubles and conflicts! It is a world that sometimes seems quite unfair, and controlled by people who don’t really understand, or know what is real. Because of that, it is sometimes difficult to keep my eyes on what is real, and what is important. So I will remind myself that this world is not all that there is. How great is that! I have life that is going to last forever, and this time on earth with all its frustrations and conflicts and troubles is but a brief stop in the road.

My prayer today, Lord, is that I will remember that what You have for me is so much more than this life only. Thank You that I can look forward to heaven with You. I love You. AMEN

I will say to You, Lord, “You are my Master!” All the good things I have are from You. The Godly people in the land are my true heroes. Psalm 16
