“Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things”    Colossians 3.2 NIV
 
 The Apostle Paul writes these words in his letter to the church at Colossae encouraging believers to focus their minds on spiritual, heavenly things. He urges believers to live a new life that is reflected in their priorities and behaviour, which Paul describes as putting off the old self and putting on the new.
As believers we are encouraged to focus on God and righteousness, seeking His Kingdom first and trusting in God for peace. He advises us to maintain a clear undistracted path in life and think on things that are good and praiseworthy which will transform our minds. This verse encourages believers to focus on spiritual realities and heavenly perspectives rather than on wordly concerns which of course are all around us. To focus on God with our thoughts, desires and priorities rather than earthly concerns such as possessions, status, fears and anxiety will position our lives towards God and will have lasting worth.
What is the main focus of our lives today?
 
 
PRAYER   
 
Loving God
We pray that You will keep our minds focused on You each day and give us eternal perspectives in our priorities and attitudes.
                                                                   In Jesus Name
 AMEN
