There arguably exists only two aspects of time. One is the moment, the other is eternity.

There exists no future for it hasn’t come; there is only the hope of the future, which finds its being in the moment. There exists no past, only its effects, its ramifications, its signature, and all these are observed and experienced in the moment.

The eternal truly exists and in it is all that is of God. All wisdom, insight, knowledge and, most importantly, relationships, are in eternity.

So we live according to eternity for in it is all that is good. But we live it in the moment. We cannot, even if we desired it, live in anything but the moment. So enjoy it; let it be a fragrant sacrifice unto God. For these three remain, faith, hope, and love, but the greatest is love, because the faith is in the existence of eternity and God’s plan in Christ, hope is looking forward its consumation, and love is for this moment in which both of the others find their realization.

In this we see that the moment is, in fact, eternal. For in eternity there is God and his holiness, and in the moment there is God, and his holiness in us. Does the moment end? No, it is always with us. What we do in this moment ostensibly defines what we are in eternity.
