We are
troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in
despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not
destroyed; always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus,
that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. For we
which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also
of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. So then death worketh
in us, but life in you.
We having
the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore
have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak; knowing that he which
raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us
with you.
For all
things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the
thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
For which
cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is
renewed day by day. 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. 2Co 4:8-18
Col
3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
Luk_12:34
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
