It is wisdom to consider and ask oursleves, “Is all that we are tirelessly working for and putting our efforts into going to have any eternal value?”Does what takes your time, thoughts and attention have eternal value? Are you investing into eternity? ”Heaven and earth [as now known] will pass away, but My words will not pass away.“ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭24‬:‭35‬ ‭AMP‬‬.

We must live by the Word and for the Word; for the Word is living and active, the Word will not ever return void, and the Word is the One who Was and Is and Is to come – He Who forever Will be. ”I will worship toward Your holy temple, And praise Your name For Your lovingkindness and Your truth; For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.“ ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭138‬:‭2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

And we know this Word is a Man, the One we call Jesus. ”In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.“
‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The Word is Jesus, in Him is the Life, and His Life is our light. If we are not living according His words, His plans, His desires (which practically are love Him, love your family, love others – and under this umbrella He came for the Church / His Bride and to seek and save the lost) then we are not fully walking in the light and to different degrees living in darkness.

Our life as an offering to the Lord on earth is brief and fleeting, ”So we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are visible are temporal [just brief and fleeting], but the things which are invisible are everlasting and imperishable.“ ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭4‬:‭18‬ ‭AMP‬‬

Are your investments on earth making eternal deposits? ”Do not gather and heap up and store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust and worm consume and destroy, and where thieves break through and steal. But gather and heap up and store for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust nor worm consume and destroy, and where thieves do not break through and steal; For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.“ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6‬:‭19‬-‭21‬ ‭AMPC‬‬

We must live our lives with purpose and intentionality. Eternity is near. For some it could be today… others tomorrow and for some yet when our Beloved Bridegroom returns and draws us near.

Be mindful of your investments, you are the keeper of your own field.
