Focus: Eternal or Temporal

Where is your focus?


Eternity is not something that begins after you are dead. It is going on all the time. We are in it now. –Gilman

He who has no vision of eternity has no hold on time. –Carlyle

Every natural longing has its natural satisfaction. If we thirst, God has created liquids to gratify thirst. If we are susceptible of attachment, there are beings to gratify the love. If we thirst for life and love eternal, it is likely that there are an eternal life and an eternal love to satisfy that craving. -Robertson

Learn to hold loosely all that is not eternal. -Royden

That only is worth my having which I can have forever. That only is worth my grasping which death cannot tear out of my hand. –Spurgeon

Every man's life is a fairy tale written by God's fingers. -Andersen

With every rising of the sun, think of your life as just begun. –Anonymous

God asks no man whether he will accept life. That is not the choice. You must take it. The only choice is how. –Beecher

Our life is scarce the twinkle of a star in God's eternal day. -Taylor
