Focus on Jesus’s eternal inheritance.

2 Corinthians 4:16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18 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.
1 Timothy 1:7 “For we brought nothing into this world and we can carry nothing out.”
Jesus paid everything for this inheritance.
Hebrews 9:15b Jesus has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.
Even though this inheritance can be received freely by us, it cost Jesus everything.
Jesus became poor so we can become rich.
