Made to last forever

This life is preparation for next. The closer you live to God, the smaller everything else appear. When you live in light of eternity, your values change.

The most damaging aspect of contemporary living is short-term thinking. There is more to life than just here and now! Eternity is all the rest you don't see underneath the surface.

“For us this is the end of all the stories … But for them it was only the beginning of the real story. All their life in this world had only been the cover and the title page: now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story, which no one on earth has read, which goes on forever and which every chapter is better than the one before.” – C. S. Lewis

Only a fool would go through life unprepared for what we all know will eventually happen.

Measured against eternity, our time on earth is a blink of an eye, but the consequences of it will last forever.

It would be wise to live each day as if it were the last day of our life. As Matthew Henry said, "It ought to be the business of everyday to prepare for our final day."

1 John 2:17; "This world is fading away, along with everything it craves,. But if you do the will of God, youu will live forever."
