I find it so easy to get caught up in the trivia of life. When I get caught in this trap some of life’s minor issues start to take on more importance than they should. For example more than once I have spent time and energy concerned about something that is so temporary that once it is over it truly is over. I want to live my life more focusing on the important facets of lie. I want to have my eyes so focused on the eternal that I truly inherit the abundant life that Jesus offers to us all.
If I suddenly learned that my life was going to end in a week, I might live this week differently. I am sure that I would not be so concerned about the little things of life. It would cause changes in my view of life, itself. Down in the depth of my soul, I know that I am not going to live forever. But I don’t always think about it in the middle of some of life’s mundane happenings. Today and this week I am going to think about what really matters.
