A Better Life (Part 2)

I was listening to 2 Corinthians  before going to bed last night.  Two verses stood out whch I thought dovetailed nicely with what I learned from Tim Keller's sermon about the better life.

2 Corinthians 4:17,18
For  this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison,  as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.
  
A side note:  If you have not tried listening to the Bible, I would highly recommend giving it a try.  There's something to be said about hearing God's Word that seems more intimate, personal and immediate.  Perhaps it's because I'm not constantly trying  to dissect the passages as I tend to do when reading.  I'm not adept technologically; I would not know how to access the audio Bible had my niece not downloaded the YouVersion bible app onto my ipod this summer as she patiently showed me the wealth of things I could do with my hand-me-down ipod other than listen to the preloaded music.  Maybe you too could downland YouVersion onto your ipod, ipad, iphone, blackberry, android....and give a literal ear to God's voice!
