2 Cor. 4 16-18

So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.
2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Lifted above the floods

Noah was so shut in the Ark that no evil could reach him. Floods simply lifted Noah toward heaven, and winds helped him on his way. Outside the ark all was ruin, but inside all was rest and peace. Without Christ we perish, but in Christ Jesus there is perfect safety.

  1. Die hoop moet al ons leed verzachten.
    Komt, reisgenoten, 't hoofd omhoog!
    Voor hen, die 't heil des Heeren wachten,
    zijn bergen vlak en zeeën droog.
    O zaligheid niet af te meten,
    o vreugd, die alle smart verbant!
    Daar is de vreemd'lingschap vergeten,
    en wij, wij zijn in 't Vaderland!
