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 and 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 Cor 4:16-18
In saying goodbye to a very dear friend this past week, the Lord reminded me again that no place on earth is our home. He is my home. Very often after hard weeks like last week, I am tempted to despair or give up. I'm thankful for reminders from the Word, that this earth and its trials and afflictions are not forever. So I do not lose heart.
