Second letter to the Corinthians 4:18

We do not see (focus on) [either now or in the future] what is visible [can be seen physically], but what is invisible. For what is visible is temporary (transient, short-lived; for a certain time), but what is invisible is eternal (the things that are invisible are eternal).
