God so loved the world that he
gave his one and only Son.
—John 3:16
We often meander among small things: small worries, small pleasures, small ideas, and small talk.
John Bunyan said he was puzzled “when I saw old people hunting after the things of this life, as if they should live here always.”
Turn your thoughts to these big things:
“God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” (Jn 3:16). That’s a big thing!
“God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God” (2 Cor 5:21). That’s a big thing!
“It is appointed for men to die once, and after that comes judgment” (Heb 9:27). That’s a big thing!
Life here is short.
Life there is forever.
