“So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.”
2 Corinthians 4:16-18:
So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away

What an awesome reminder that God is in control of all things. I just learned my adult daughter has developed heart disease and may need her aortic valve replaced. When I read today’s scripture, I knew it was providential….that 1 Cor. 416 was written for me, for my circumstance. So, I purpose to fix my eyes on the eternal, not on what is seen. Thank you!
This was a lovely sentiment for the day. Could you send me one each day.
Such a beautiful verse; keep the faith and don’t lose hope. 🙏
These are truly inspirational words for me. I do have a wasting disease of the body and have lost heart and at times confused about who I am and what I stand for. Am I truly a good example for others and trust in god’s love and mercy. I believe in gods love and mercy but over many years of life I reflect and wonder who I was in those early years and who I am today. I missed out in god’s love and mercy during those early years. God however never lost hope in me, blessed me with many children and loving wife. Many times God forgave me and brought me back to faith and love only to sin and be torn away from God’s love and mercy. I am trying to let go of this earth and trust in god. It is my journey which at this time I am not sure where I will be at life’s end. I pray that it will be with Christ, blessed virgin Mary all the saints and angels dearly loved ones in God’s heavenly kingdom.
Thank you for the inspirational messages. They have helped me in my journey of love and mercy to others.
Amen! This scripture really helps me with the season I’m currently in of taking care of my mother who has dementia. I don’t get sad at her outward decline as much as I used too. Sure watching your loved one’s health decline is tough but God’s promises are so much more encouraging providing the hope needed to continue on with peace and joy.
