5 Keys to Winning in Life: Wisdom From ProverbsSample

Principle #5- Keep the end in mind

God calls us to live with eternity in view, making decisions that will matter not just now, but forever. Jesus lived this out perfectly, choosing what really mattered even at the expense of His life. Today, reflect on your current goals and activities. Ask yourself, "Will this matter in eternity? Am I building for God's glory or my own?" Pray for the wisdom to store up "treasures in heaven." Consider how you can align your life more closely with eternal values, focusing on what will truly last beyond this lifetime.

These five principles we have looked at over the past few days – vision, counsel, priorities, pace, and eternal perspective – form a roadmap for a life well-lived. They challenge us to move beyond aimless activity and into purposeful living.

As we reflect on these timeless truths, let's consider:

• Which of these areas do you most need to work on?
• How might your life look different if you applied these principles consistently?
• What's one concrete step you can take this week to move in the right direction?
