    Corrie ten Boom is a favorite survivor of mine. I’ve read some of her books multiple times because there are rich truths to savor.

    One of my favorite themes in scripture the dying to live, and the unseen versus the seen! The paradox! Great reminder!

    He knows what is on the other side of that mountain. I don’t. I’d be foolish to trust myself more than I trust Him.

    If you don’t mind asking, what does this verse mean to you personally?

      No, I don’t mind. It’s a truth stated in various passages in the Bible: the fact that what we see and experience in the present (whether joyful or tragic) isn’t the ultimate Reality, and therefore not what we should live for.
