Eternity vs Moments

“If eternity is the plan, then it makes no sense to shrink your living down to the needs and wants of this little moment. . . 

It’s hard to live with eternity in view. . . There are moments when who we are, who God is, and where this whole thing is going shrink into the background of the thoughts, emotions, and needs of the moment. . . 

God reminds us that this is not all there is, that we were created and re-created in Christ Jesus for eternity. . . 

The God of eternity grants you his eternal grace so that you can live with eternity in view.”
