We are hard pressed on every side,
but not crushed; perplexed,
but not in despair; we do not lose heart.
Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly
we are being renewed
day by day. 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 4:8, 16, 18)
