Therefore we do not become discouraged (utterly spiritless, exhausted, and wearied out through fear). […] Since we consider and look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen; for the things that are visible are temporal (brief and fleeting), but the things that are invisible are deathless and everlasting.
2 Corinthians 4:16, 18 (AMP)
It can be discouraging to look at the world around you, unless you realize that everything you see is subject to change. When looking at your family, friends, co-workers and even yourself, don’t be moved by what things look like now. Problems are temporary. Look to God’s eternal Word. Stand on His promises and you’ll begin to experience change for the better.
