June 22 Eternal Eyes – 1 Corinthians 4:7-18

Many of us are consumed by the pain and suffering of this world. And we need to be more and more farsighted—filled with hope in our loving God. Apostle Paul and his co-workers experienced great suffering and yet they had their eyes fixed on eternity. Paul boldly acknowledged that “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).


Although they were doing God’s work, they lived with the reality of being “under attacked on all sides, persecuted, and struck down”. Shouldn’t they be disappointed and frustrated? But instead of being dismayed, Paul built his hope on the “eternal glory” that replaced momentary troubles. He knew God’s power was at work in him and had complete assurance that “the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise them too. When our world around us feels trembling, may we turn our eyes to God – the eternal Rock that will never be destroyed?
