2 Corinthians 4:18
2 Corinthians 4:18
So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen.
The Apostle Paul’s words call us to fix our eyes on the unseen, the eternal, rather than the temporary and visible. Humility is the key to shifting our focus away from the world’s distractions. When we live in humility, we are not driven by what can be seen—material wealth, social status, or external appearances. Instead, we fix our eyes on the promises of God and the unseen realities of His Kingdom. This shift in focus transforms our identity and purpose, giving us a deeper sense of meaning and fulfillment. Living with humility means acknowledging that what is eternal—our relationship with God, His love for us, and His plans for our lives—is far more important than anything the world offers. Humility leads us to live for the things that truly matter and to set our hearts on the eternal purpose God has for us.
Matthew 18:4
Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
1 Peter 5:6
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
Proverbs 29:23
A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.
Matthew 5:3
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
