Today's Verse: Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.

The Holy Bible : New International Version. electronic ed. Grand Rapids : Zondervan, 1996, c1984, S. Col 3:2
Paul is encouraging us to change our attitude. Instead of grounding ourselves in earthly matters, we must look to God for strength and guidance.

Today's Comments: How easy is it to go with the flow? We spend so much of our lives dealing with material things that we too often forget about what really matters--- God. We were created for His pleasure, not ours. He is the object of our worship and we are the objects of His love. We were created to be in relationship with Him. If we focus too much on material and earthly things, we fail to maintain that relationship.
