Read 2 Corinthians 4:17 in the NABRE onlineFor that which is at present momentary and light of our tribulation, worketh for us above measure exceedingly an eternal weight of glory.
Reflection
Our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal weight of glory. Paul calls the troubles light and momentary — he writes this from a prison where he has been beaten, stoned, and shipwrecked. The glory is heavy, and the troubles are producing it.
