Unlimited: We Look At Things Which Are Not Seen
Sep 10, 2021 1262
We look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen (2 Corinthians 4:18).
In our Christian pilgrimage it is well, for the most part, to be looking forward. Forward lies the crown, and onward is the goal. Whether it be for hope, for joy, for consolation, or for the inspiring of our love, the future must, after all, be the grand object of the eye of faith.
Looking into the future we see sin cast out, the body of sin and death destroyed, the soul made perfect, and fit to be a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light. Looking further yet, the believer’s enlightened eye can see death’s river passed, the gloomy stream forded, and the hills of light attained on which stands the celestial city; he sees himself enter within the pearly gates, hailed as more than conqueror, crowned by the hand of Christ, embraced in the arms of Jesus, glorified with Him, and made to sit together with Him on His throne, even as He has overcome and has sat down with the Father on His throne…
We look at things which are not seen.
The joys of heaven will surely compensate for the sorrows of earth. Hush, hush, my doubts! Death is but a narrow stream, and you will soon have forded it. Time, how short—eternity, how long! Death, how brief—immortality, how endless! – Charles Spurgeon
Reflection: Children are always looking forward to something, and they can’t be quiet about it! What are you looking forward to the most in heaven? Think of three people that you want to tell. Go on, be excited enough to tell them!

Indeed, we are to look and reflect on things not seen, the etenal life we will inherite, the increase of our faith and hope for. And acceptance that God is ever Faithful.
