This notes for this sermon were based on 2 Corinthians 4:6-18.
Let’s face it! We can do everything we believe is right and just, and still life is not going to go our way. This is an imperfect world. In fact, like the Apostle Paul, we may face opposition because we ARE doing the right thing. We may get knocked down, taunted and feel pressure from all sides.
Life isn’t going to be easy. We may feel that way when we center on ourselves, but God has a bigger picture. We can praise Him because his plan extends far beyond our sight. It will all come together in the end, but don’t expect smooth sailing in the meantime.
“We fix our eyes not on what is seen, but what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18
