Grab Your Boots and Build a Snowman

Scripture

2 Corinthians 4:16-18

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, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Observation

mo·men·tar·y

/ˈmōmənˌterē/

lasting for a very short time; brief.

Application

As adults, when we see snow, we tend to start grumbling. We don’t want to get out and shovel it. We hate how cold it is or slick it can get. But look through the eyes of a child. They run to pullout those snow boots and race outside to play. They know it will only last temporarily. If we can use this thought on our everyday troubles, how much easier it would be to get through it all. Focus on the gratitudes of the day and not spend our energy criticizing everything around us. Next time Satan sends snow, grab your boots and build a snowman!

Prayer

Lord, thank you for being with me during every season of my life. Help me remember when troubles come that they are momentary. ~Amen
