Never Give Up

Scripture

2 Corinthians 4

16 That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day. 17 For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! 18 So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.

Observation

Do you ever feel like giving up? Is life just too overwhelming for you? Take Paul's advice and look beyond your troubles and fix your gaze on the things that cannot be seen. The things that we see will not last long but the things that you cannot see will last forever. The last time I checked “forever” was a very long time.

Application

I will fix my gaze on things that cannot be seen and not on my troubles.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, help me focus on the important stuff today and not on stuff that doesn't matter. Help me focus on your kingdom.
