Seeing the invisible!!!!

Was praying at the chc payer meeting when i felt the Word of the Lord. It comes from 2Cor4:16-18. "Therefore, we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal." This is an amazing verse. It tells wat we as believers, we must focus on. We mustn't jus look at the surface of things, but must look at the inside, that which is not seen. Hence, we mustn't be discourage when things aren't working right. We mustn't lose heart, but must perservere. Outwardly, we maybe dying, and feel like giving up, but we must remember that tis is a temporary affliction, a light one compared to the eternal glory we have in the Lord. We must work on the inward man. We must ensure that it is being renewed in the Lord everyday!!! We must truly fix our eyes on things which have eternal value, these things are usually not seen in the natural, but through the eyes of God, through the eyes of faith. We must live for a vision greater than self. We must live for the Lord and for His purpose, and for His glory!!! These are the things which are not seen, which have an eternal value.
