John Piper on Glory Outweighing Affliction - Reformed (2 Corinthians 4:16-18)
"Light affliction—Paul was beaten, shipwrecked, stoned! But compared to ETERNAL glory, it is light. The eternal weight of glory outweighs every present suffering. God uses affliction to prepare glory; sovereignty ensures the exchange. Fix your eyes on what grace is accomplishing." — John Piper.
