Tomorrow

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.  2 Corinthians 4:18


I have an uncanny knack of coming unravelled when facing trouble.  I was in such a great mood to start the work day on Friday, but by 5pm and after a series of crazy events, I felt pretty much defeated. 


God promises us all that the troubles looming in our lives today will not last forever.  So our goal should be on focusing our attention away from our hurt and pain and looking towards the things that will last forever-God's never-ending love, His gift of grace and mercy, and eternity in heaven with Him.


When you fix your eyes on Him, your present troubles will be seen as only temporary because you know that they won't last for long.  


We can live our lives with confidence today because we have a greater hope in God's promises for our lives tomorrow.
