It's easy to lose track of our eternal destinies as we go through our daily lives. There's so much to do and keep track of, it's hard to think of the future, especially one that's that far ahead. But what we fail to realize is that our eternal destiny isn't something that we won't reach until long after we die; it's something that we're building, bit-by-bit, each day. Eternity is built one day at a time, just as a year is just a series of three-hundred sixty-five individual days. Our destinies are partly determined by how we spend each day because each day is a tiny part of our eternities.
It's difficult to remember the big picture as we go throughout our individual days, but we don't really need to. Let's just try to make each day a good one. Try to practice a Christlike attribute, or give a little service, or deepen your testimony slightly each day. It doesn't have to be much. If each day, in some tiny way, makes you more like your Heavenly Father wants you to be, then those individual days, multiplied by an infinite number of days, will make for an excellent eternity.
