Momentary Light Affliction

This post is for anyone who is experiencing any affliction, whether emotional, spiritual, physical, or otherwise. My thoughts were directed to affliction because of a song by Justin Rizzo called Momentary Light Affliction. My prayers any sympathies go out to you. And if you think of someone dealing with affliction while reading this, remember them in your prayers as well.

Momentary Light Affliction--Justin Rizzo

I set my eyes on what I cannot see,
I set my eyes on the Eternal,
I set my eyes on what I cannot see,
I set my heart on the Eternal,
But You are my great reward,
Forever I will be with you, Yeah,
You are my great reward,
Forever I will be with you.

I know that,
This Momentary Light Affliction
Is working in me,
An Eternal weight of Glory, an Eternal weight of Glory,
I know that,
This Momentary Light Affliction
Is working in me,
An Eternal weight of Glory, an Eternal weight of Glory.

For You are God and You know what You want,
And You know how You'll get it the fastest way,
And You give and take away,
The only initiator of seasons of change.
For You are God and You know what You want,
And You know how You'll get it the fastest way,
With the least amount of pain,
But there will be pain,
It's guaranteed.

This Momentary Light Affliction
Is working in me,
An Eternal weight of Glory, an Eternal weight of Glory.

Know that God is working in you, for Eternal Glory. Set your face on Him, and gain strength in His love for you. Blessings.
