For our light affliction, which is but for a moment,
worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look
not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the
things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are
eternal. 2 Corinthians, Chapter 4,
verses 17-18.
Sometimes I get caught up in feeling sorry for
myself. When I think of this, my
troubles are very insignificant compared to the suffering Jesus went through to
save us from our sins. After I think of
all He went through on my behalf, I feel guilty for the petty things I worry
about.
Here is a related passage:
*For I the
Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help
thee. Isaiah, Chapter 41, verse 13.
Because this is an example of how I’ve applied this Bible passage to my life, it doesn’t necessarily reflect the whole meaning of the passage.
