Why is it important to view our lives in light of eternity?

Answered in 1 source

Viewing our lives in light of eternity helps us prioritize our time and actions in a meaningful way.

Moses, in Psalm 90, urges us to number our days to gain a right perspective on our fleeting lives. Recognizing that our existence is brief compared to God's eternity instills in us a sense of urgency. The psalm teaches that life without God is vanity, and we should focus on His glory and purpose. When we see ourselves in relation to God’s immeasurable time, we understand the brevity of life and the importance of living wisely, redeeming our time to glorify Him. This perspective motivates us to serve others and cultivate meaningful relationships while we still have the chance.
