2 Corinthians 4:16-18 (NIV)
16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.
17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
Perspective makes all the difference in our lives. We give meaning to events and react to those events based on what we believe. Understanding the big picture gives us the big picture view. Knowing that true reality rests in the unseen eternal life of our Father strengthens our hearts and allows peace to exist in the midst of struggle and uncertainty. We are renewed by His Spirit that allows us to look beyond the moment to that which is to come.
May our peace rest in Him.
