“So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.” 2 Corinthians 4:18 NLT
If all we can see are the troubles of the moment we will very quickly get overwhelmed and lose heart. This isn’t about ignoring our troubles or pretending they’re not there, it’s about doing the one thing that can really stir hope, build faith and get us safely through! That is to refocus our thoughts on eternal things rather than the temporary! Think about God’s promises, think about His love and grace, think about His creative power and His plan to make all things new. Lord, help me to fix my gaze on You today. Amen 🙌🏼😊
