2 Corinthians 4; Colossians 3; 2 Corinthians 4

Hallelujah, father, the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ shines on me and in me! I am like an earthen vessel filled with a treasure who is your Holy Spirit, and where you are, father, is divine, eternal, all reaching glory.

Now, in faith and encouraged by your Spirit, I set my heart on things above and not on the things of this earth. For I am dead, and my life is hidden with Christ in God.

Therefore, I do not lose heart even though my outward man is perishing, yet my inward man is being renewed day by day. The light afflictions of life in this flesh, which are brief, work for me a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.

I learn to not look at the things that are seen; not to turn at the world’s report, but instead I keep my eyes on the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are divine and eternal.

You, father, have prepared me for the things of life, and you have given me your Spirit as a guarantee.
