Are You Living for Eternity?
The world constantly demands attention, pulling focus toward temporary concerns. But living with an eternal perspective changes everything. When your eyes are fixed on eternity, priorities shift—faithfulness becomes more important than success, holiness outweighs comfort, and pleasing God takes precedence over pleasing people.
Today, consider where your focus lies. Are you consumed with temporary things, or are you living with eternity in view? Ask God to align your heart with His, so that every decision reflects a life invested in what truly lasts.
"Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth."
— Colossians 3:2
