So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 4:17-18 Thank you, merciful Lord in heaven, for the gift you have given us in Jesus, for reminding us that our troubles are only momentary and for the hope of eternal glory. We may be hard pressed on every side in this world, but not crushed, because we know that everything is under your control. Let us not lose hope, O God, but keep standing strong in faith fixing our eyes on Jesus , I pray in his Holy Name. Amen
