For this slight momentary affliction

My mom is memorizing Scripture, and this was the passage God led her to memorize:

"So we do not lose heart. Though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed day by day. For this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal" (2 Corinthians 4:16-18).

What an amazing passage. For us is being prepared the weight of glory. The things of this earth are so insignificant compared to the eternal glory that we will one day experience.

And that is something I am looking forward to.
