2 Corinthians 4:15-18 (NKJV)
15 For all things are for your sakes, that grace, having spread through
the many, may cause thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.
16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is
perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.
17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for
us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
18 while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things
which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the
things which are not seen are eternal.

Paul has talked about the things he has suffered. Then he called them
"light affliction"!
Since we have not suffered anything like Paul, our suffering must not
make the scale! What he wants to encourage us to is to look ahead and
look UPWARD! and reminds us that God is to be glorified!
So, Look up and glorify God, and watch Him provide for you!
