II Cor 416-18
12
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly
we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being
renewed day by day. For our light and momentary
troubles are achieving for us an eternal
glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our
eyes not on what is seen, but on what is
unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what
in unseen is eternal. - Paul
13
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord
Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us
new birth into a living hope and into an
inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade
kept in heaven for you In this you greatly
rejoice, though now for a little while you may
have had to suffer grief in all kinds of
trials. - Peter
14
Dear friends, now we are the children of God, And
what we will be has not yet been made known. But
we know that when he appears, we shall be like
him, for we shall see him as he is. Everyone who
has this hope in him purifies himself, just as he
is pure. - John
