“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18 (NIV)
The Christian life is a life of faith. This makes a difference in the way we look at things and at events. The Bible verse we have chosen for today reminds us of this. This might sound like a contradiction. Why should someone look at something invisible? Of course we realize that this verse speaks of two kinds of eyes. It means that with a spiritual eye we can see what our physical eyes cannot see. And our spiritual eye is the vision of our faith. When we believe the promises of God we are looking at spiritual truth through the eyes of our faith. And we believe what God says even though we don't always see the evidence with the eyes in our head. Let's thank God for the eye of faith to see His promises as real and to see our eternal future as real too.
