Day 295 - Temporary

I'm struggling right now. I feel alone and frustrated. It's hard to explain, but I can feel an inner battle in my heart and I feel like I am fighting it all by myself. I know that we have a lot of stress right now, and I also know how lucky I am in all situations, but I just feel misunderstood. Have you felt that way before? Like no one will validate your feelings or help you fight your battle.

This verse has always touched my heart. I came upon it again today.

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. - 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

This moment in time is temporary. That's all I need to know. The stress, the heartache, the feeling alone... it's just for right now. But what I do with my life, my faith, and my hope is achieving something that will be eternal.

I can get through this.
