We spend so much of life chasing things that feel urgent.
Success.
Recognition.
Security.
More money.
More control.
More certainty about the future.
And yet Elisabeth Elliot — a woman who walked through loss, uncertainty, and suffering — kept returning to something deeper than all of it:
Nothing in this life compares to knowing God.
Not just knowing about Him.
Not using Him as inspiration.
But truly walking with Him.
Because at the end of our lives, the things we built, bought, collected, and worried over will not matter the way we thought they would.
But knowing God will.
That is why Scripture does not describe eternal life primarily as a place…
but as a relationship:
“This is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” — John 17:3
We were not created merely to survive this world.
We were created to glorify God here…
and enjoy Him forever.
What is one thing that has helped you know God more deeply in your own life?
