Blue Letter Bible

For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man
perish, yet the inward [man] is renewed day by day. For our light affliction,
which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding [and] eternal
weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the
things which are not seen: for the things which are seen [are] temporal; but
the things which are not seen [are] eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:16-18)
Our struggles, our battles, our daily toiling against the
forces of this present darkness are naught compared with the marvellous riches
and captivating glory to which we are called and in which we will soon partake.
What matter our suffering? What matter our failures? What matter any measure of
suffering when held against the surpassing beauty and permanence of our
heavenly hope!
