EG Ministries INC.

You cannot see the earth moving deep down under the ground but you can feel its effect through earthquakes or you can see the result as you watch a tsunami hit the shore.  You cannot see the wind but you can feel the effect as pelting rain slams into your body or you see the result in uprooted trees tumbled on the ground.

The Bible speaks to the topic of seen and unseen in 2 Corinthians 4:18 when it reminds us that what is seen is only temporary and what is unseen lasts forever.  That is hard for us to understand and think about because we are so involved in this world that we see. 

But God wants us to fix our eyes on Him who we cannot see.  What we see is the effect He has on a person who believes in Him and has asked Him to come into his or her life. 

The result is amazing – those who once were angry are now peaceful. 

Others who were depressed and confused now have hope and purpose. 

The Bible calls this transformation in lives a “new creation” – the old is gone and the new is here.  Turning our lives over to the power and control of the God who created the universe and who sent His only Son to die on the cross for the sins of the world will have an effect of change that will last for eternity.

So, where are you today – are you still focused on the things of this world or have you turned your eyes upon Jesus? 

This is the important message we strive day in and day out to share with young people and adults.  There is nothing else that matters in this world than what we do with Jesus TODAY. 

Thanks for all you do through prayer and support for this ministry.

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.  2 Corinthians 4:18
