II Corinthians 4:16-18 NKJV
“Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.”
This scripture was the first scripture memorialized that took deep roots in me. It taught me, I am dying daily, and that my flesh will never rest until Jesus return.
Second it taught me that affliction, persecution, and trails are a part of the everyday fabric of the believer, but the promise is every trial is tailor shape and mold you in who GOD is calling us to be.
Not just for here and now, but for eternity…with Him
