LIVING WITH ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE
Key Scripture
“Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.” — Colossians 3:2
Devotional Message
Life on earth is temporary, but eternity is forever.
Many of our worries, disappointments, and frustrations become smaller when viewed through the lens of eternity. God calls us to live with a perspective that extends beyond the present moment.
An eternal perspective affects how we spend our time, use our resources, build relationships, and pursue our goals. It reminds us that what we do for God’s Kingdom has lasting value.
This does not mean ignoring earthly responsibilities. Rather, it means approaching them with heavenly priorities.
When you live with eternity in mind, your purpose becomes clearer. You become more focused on what truly matters: loving God, loving people, and advancing His Kingdom.
