Do Not Let The Enemy Distort Your View

"We view our slight, short-lived troubles in the light of eternity. We see our difficulties as the substance that produces for us an eternal, weighty glory far beyond all comparison, because we don't focus our attention on what is seen but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but the unseen realm is eternal."

2 Corinthians 4:17-18

Life fights to capture every ounce of your attention. Trials maneuver themselves in front of you, in order to shift your focus away from me. The enemy knows that if you're consumed and overwhelmed by what you see, he'll have an entryway to your thought processes. He seeks to smother you in the angst of what you see. But you were created for a highter way.

Set me before your eyes. Let me be the barrier between you and the problem. Look to me, and then, through the light of my glory, you'll see the trial with heavenly clarity. Filter every situation through the screen of my goodness, power, love and divinity. When my glory fills your vision, nothing is able to distort your view. Circumstances must not b allowed the opportunity to lord themselves over you. Though trials may factually be present, they must not be allowed to consume your vision. See me standing in front of you. Look through my glory, and you will see these problems through the light of truth. It is only when the light of truth has penetrated deep into your being that you will see with my perspective.
