Preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison...

Today I read this verse "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." 

I found this verse to be really encouraging to me. Sometimes we lose focus on what is important and are just stuck with what we see. Many times we do not look deeper. We might spend our time working too much, or doing too much. Maybe working more than having quality with the family. Those "things" that we focus on might not be as important. We have focus on what God is doing inside of us and now in what we do or how we look on the outside. What God does in me lasts forever, what I do will eventually fade away. I have to keep that in mind. We might get tired or doing things over and over again, but God is just shaping us and preparing us for the best. We cannot lose heart!!  This verse clearly says so ..it is just "momentary"..We do not have to worry. Just let God work in us in the unseen.
