I learned this when I was down with back pain for nearly a year. The pain took my breath away but God showed me He was far more powerful than my pain.

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.
