Pursue The Unseen

Seek the Unseen:  Live with Eternal Vision

As believers, we’re surrounded by a world that prioritizes the visible, the tangible, the fleeting.  

We are bombarded daily with messages that encourage us to chase after material success, social status, and instant gratification.  Yet, in the midst of this, God’s word calls us to a higher perspective—a view that goes beyond what our eyes can see and our hands can touch.

In 2 Corinthians 4:18, the Apostle Paul reminds us that “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.”  

This verse calls us to lift our eyes above the temporary and focus on the eternal.

When we seek the unseen, we shift our priorities.  We begin to see that relationships, faith, love, and spiritual growth are more valuable than any material possession or fleeting moment of fame.  

We understand that our identity in Christ is more important than any title or achievement.  We recognize that the unseen Kingdom of God has greater significance than the visible structures of this world.

To seek the unseen means to live with eternal vision.  

It means investing in people, not just things.  

It means sowing seeds of faith, hope, and love, even when the results aren’t immediately visible.  

It means trusting that God’s work in us and through us has lasting impact, even when we don’t always see it.

Jesus said, “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven” (Matthew 6:19-20).  

When we seek the unseen, we are laying up heavenly treasures—building a legacy of faith that will outlast any earthly accomplishment.

Today, I encourage you to seek the unseen in your life.  

Look beyond the distractions and the noise of this world.  

Find the beauty in simple acts of kindness.  

Embrace the peace that comes from a deep relationship with God. 

Pursue the joy that comes from knowing you are part of a story that is much larger than yourself.

When we live with eternal vision, we find strength in trials, hope in uncertainty, and purpose in our daily lives. 

We realize that our journey is not just about the here and now, but about the greater story that God is weaving through us.

Let us seek and pursue the unseen together, trusting that God’s unseen hand is guiding us, His unseen love is sustaining us, and His unseen promises are the true treasures worth pursuing.

Be Blessed!
