Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 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.
Just a few thoughts to remind you to keep the main thing, the "MAIN THING" In this verse above you find the key to living everyday life. Notice the first part that says "we do not lose heart", which is easy to do if your not careful. How can you not lose heart? You keep your eyes on that which is important. TO do what the next verse says to keep your eyes on what is unseen rather than on what is seen.
I know it sounds like a mystery but it is not. You see every day you have something, someone struggling for our attention. When we take our eyes off of what is important and place it on things that are not, we are easily tripped up. You get your eyes more on the problem rather than the problem solver.
What are some of those things that are unseen? Do you see love? Can you see eternity? Can you see eternal life or Heaven? You see all of these by faith.
Remember when your mis understood or saddened byt situations remember to look up and even if you do not believe in a supreme being you must admit that the sky in it self is larger than you and in the scheme of things you are merely a speck of dust on a marble.
So look to what is unseen for those are the things that will last forever. Look to GOD for He alone is invisible yet visible. You say, "Mark, now we know your crazy did you just say GOD is visible?" in some ways yes!! See him in the love of a man and a woman, in the self sacrificing love of one who offers their lives in the service of another. In the way the rainbow stretches across the sky, or stars that glitter in the night sky.
So take this with you, your not alone, your hopes and dreams will keep you moving, your love of life will be the spark that keeps you striving for all that is good. Be encouraged and do not stop.
