have the true point of view

"'Though now for a season'--'for a short time'--'for a little while.' This is an important aspect. The trial is short, the results are eternal. Sometimes seventy, eighty or ninety years do not seem short, when they are filled with difficulties and struggles and sorrows and bereavement and long lonely waiting. But that is just the fleshly point of view. We must get the spiritual point of view. Paul says--'Our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory' (II Cor. 4:17). Because Paul had the true point of view, he was joyful and contented and continuously thankful through the most terrible trials; therefore he could look forward to a crown of glory that fadeth no away."
