The Apostle Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 4:16-18: "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." (ESV)
In the next Chapter, the tent-making apostle compares our bodies here on earth to fragile tents, temporary housing for our souls until permanent glorified versions are conferred to us upon resurrection. Paul goes on to say that in this life we groan, groan with the inherent pains that come with this fallen world, but we also groan for our Eternal Home where groaning will be no more. We hope and yearn for this now because Jesus has gone ahead of us, to make a place for all those who are His! Yay and Amen!
