Live in Light of Eternity

I woke up this morning with these words echoing in my spirit… so I hunted down a song I haven’t played in years: “Enough” by Chris Tomlin/Passion. And the moment I hit play, the chorus hit me afresh:
“All of You…
is more than enough for all of me…
So simple.
So profound.
So TRUE.
Because let’s be honest—life gets noisy.
We get caught up in the swirl:
“I’ve got so much to do.
So much to build. So much life to live.”
But the question crashes in...
Am I living in LIGHT of eternity?
Not just in light of my goals, my bucket lists, my to-dos… But in light of FOREVER??
And then the second verse hit me:
“You’re my sacrifice,
of greatest price…
still more awesome than I know…
You’re my coming King…
You are everything…”
And I had to stop and ask:
Do I really live like that’s true?
Or do I just give Him lip service?
Do I claim to serve Him, yet hold back the very parts of my life He’s asking me to lay down?
Am I truly surrendered—or just religiously going through motions?
Because if He really is my sacrifice of greatest price, then my life can’t be half-hearted. And if He really is my coming King, then every decision I make should carry the WEIGHT OF ETERNITY...
Scripture says: “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but only the one who does the will of My Father.” (Matthew 7:21)
That’s sobering. Because it’s not about being a “church goer.” And it’s not about "looking the part"…
It’s about RELATIONSHIP.
About knowing Him.
And being known BY Him!!!
And with the Feast of Trumpets right around the corner (in Sept), I see people talking dates, numbers, rapture timelines. Pre-Trib, Post-Trib, Mid-Trib, Pan-Trib...
But WHATEVER it is, the real question is the same:
Am I living like Jesus could come today?
Am I pouring my life out like a gift offering to Him?
Am I urgently, passionately pointing as many people as possible to His AMAZING Good News?
Because one day… the trumpet WILL sound.
Or one day, I’ll simply take my last breath.
Either way, I WILL see Him face-to-face.
And when I do, it won’t matter how busy I was, how much I accomplished, or how impressive my goals looked on earth.
What will matter is:
Did I KNOW Him?
Did I LOVE Him?
Did I make Him known?
So today… I’m asking myself the hard questions.
Am I living like He’s ENOUGH?
Am I pouring myself out for Him—or just giving Him the leftovers?
Am I so consumed with today that I’ve lost sight of forever?
Because in the end…
It won’t be about lip service.
It will be about love.
It won’t be about religion...
It will be about RELATIONSHIP.
And today, I’m choosing to live again in the light of eternity...
Because He IS enough.
He always WAS.
He always WILL BE.
But what about you?
Are you living like His return could happen today?
Are you pouring your life out as a gift offering—or just giving Him the leftovers?
Have the craziness, the busyness, the noise of life pushed the urgency aside?
Are you so consumed with today that you’ve lost sight of FOREVER?
One day, the trumpet WILL sound.
The King WILL come.
And when that moment arrives, there will be no rewinding…
No second chances…
No postponing.
EVERYTHING you do today matters in light of THAT day.
So this month, this week, this very moment… will you choose to live like His return is the heartbeat of your life???
