"For What Is Seen Is Temporary, But What Is Unseen Is Eternal!"

Our afflictions are light!

Our afflictions are light, when 
compared with what we really deserve.

They are light, when compared with 
the sufferings of the LORD JESUS.

But perhaps their real lightness 
is best seen, by comparing them 
with the weight of glory which 
is awaiting us!

"For our light and momentary afflictions 
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. For what is seen is temporary, 
but what is unseen is eternal!" 
2 Corinthians 4:17-18
