Eternity

A couple months ago I came upon this quote by C.S. Lewis:

"If you read history you will find out that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most about the next."

Ever since then I have the quoted printed up and tacked up to my bulletin board. I look at it often and think about what it says. When I first saw the quote I liked it because I wanted it to become true in my life.

Over the last several months this quote has really transformed the way that I think, the way I spend my time, what I spend my money on, etc. It has made me think more and more about what is really important in life because what I do in this life on earth will have an impact on eternity.

There is so much more to our existence than what we see or do here on earth. Let's live for eternity!
