Today’s Thought “Walking the Mile” G. Ward

 

2 Corinthians 4: ¹⁶ Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer person is decaying, yet our inner person is being renewed day by day. ¹⁷ For our momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, ¹⁸ 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.

 

Chapter 4 at 2 Corinthians should be a holy mantra for every believer; to administer all things endeavored for the glory of God. To bring honor to His Name via a perfect representation of His Word. A pragmatist is one who offers some level of practical application to life’s difficulties and he’ll often do so through a softening of potential blows this world dispenses and whereas believers are never called to mix their own ideas with the Supremacy of God’s Word, our message given by Him can offend the hearer’s expectations; but you must proclaim HIM sufficient to guide anyway. At verse 16 it promotes the greatest understanding is to know our time in earth is very short and to reach that holy destination prepared for you and me, must come under a proposed practice of now – so a blessed assurance that our Lord is our God exists now.

And Father God, we seek to ready ourselves through obeisance through Your commands and identify with Your changing us as we grow stronger in knowledge in where the Only Truth exists – in Your Word. May each of us represented on this line search out the magnitude of that love for the remainder of this week, for Your glory and through Jesus, Amen.
