The Christian Perspective and Living for Heaven Today by Stacy Duplease of Stories by Stacy and Publishing by Stacy

Before reading this blog, check out my blog at: http://www.storiesbystacy.blogspot.com titled, "Perspective." Then, come to this post, please. If you don't have time, that's fine. Read on.

Life is about perspective, isn't it? If you have the right wrong, your life is greatly enriched by it. If not, then you will undoubtedly run into problems. Furthermore, perspective can impact us for the rest of our lives. It makes all the difference.

What is perspective?
It's our outlook or point-of-view. In many ways, it's what we think. However, there is far more to it than that. Our perspective makes us who we are as individuals and our perspective shapes the way we live.

A Christian perspective:
I think the sum of a Christian life can be found in this perspective:

Live for heaven today.

Or in this question:

How are you living for heaven today?

Or in this one:

What you are doing today impacts your eternity.

Living for heaven today
If we were to live every day, every second, every week, ever month, every year with this perspective, our lives would be drastically different.

This is a reality check for us.

We cannot call ourselves Christians and not keep this in mind and intentionally live this out day in and day out until we are called home.

Are you living for heaven today?

What does it mean to you to live for heaven today?
