The beat goes on.

{How True!!!! This post is being created on my old computer, which I kept as a backup to use when things go haywire on the new computer. I had built my computers in the past, component by component. The last three computers were all purchased from large companies and all three were a major disappointment for me. They seem to have the idea that EVERYONE loves their bloatware (their fix everything software). All that software does is eventually mess up your system causing you to need their techs to fix their mess and to keep you buying there service contracts. That is the mess I find myself in on the computer I use for everything, including writing this blog. Thank goodness for my old computer. It is my creation with no bloatware and only useful programs to do what needs to be done.} 

2 Corinthians 4:7-15

4:7 But we have this treasure in clay jars, so that the extraordinary power belongs to God and does not come from us. 4:8 We are experiencing trouble on every side, but are not crushed; we are perplexed, but not driven to despair; 4:9 we are persecuted, but not abandoned; we are knocked down, but not destroyed, 4:10 always carrying around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible in our body. 4:11 For we who are alive are constantly being handed over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible in our mortal body. 4:12 As a result, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you. 4:13 But since we have the same spirit of faith as that shown in what has been written, “I believed; therefore I spoke,” we also believe, therefore we also speak. 4:14 We do so because we know that the one who raised up Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus and will bring us with you into his presence. 4:15 For all these things are for your sake, so that the grace that is including more and more people may cause thanksgiving to increase to the glory of God. 4:16 Therefore we do not despair, but even if our physical body is wearing away, our inner person is being renewed day by day. 4:17 For our momentary, light suffering is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison 4:18 because we are not looking at what can be seen but at what cannot be seen. For what can be seen is temporary, but what cannot be seen is eternal.

The quote today certainly fits what most of us experience in our day to day existence. It is good to remember that what we go through isn't for no reason. The bible quote tells us that how we handle our situations is important for the end result, what we can't see. Just because we can't see something does not mean it does not exist. The unseen world is where we are going to be when this world ends for us. This world is a stopover, a way station, a classroom. The bits and pieces shared in this blog are not the whole or the end of the story. Each of you are the ongoing story. Read the shared verses above again and let them speak to you. They are the answer to the Brainy Quote above.

Today I am sharing a Scottish Highland Men image. It is one that I am sure the ladies will like.
