- Washington Irving

"What is faith? It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see."
- Hebrews 11:1

  1. I just found this verse!

    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, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
    2 Corinthians 4:17-18

    Paul cites them as "light and momentary troubles" in comparison to the pain and suffering of Jesus and in the context of the eternal peace and mercy we receive in God. :)
