Seek The Things

 That Are Above

 

 

So if you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth, for you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life is revealed, then you also will be revealed with him in glory.

 

Colossians 3:1-4

 

Remember where your citizenship really is. It is based on loyalty, not location. Your citizenship is with Christ, not on earth.

 

It is important for us to be reminded that though we are living on this side of heaven for now, our eternal home is the place where our loyalty should lie. Set your life on things above, not things here on earth.

 

As you mind your earthly duties,

keep heaven in mind.
