Today’s Thought “New Year, New Self?” G. Ward

Colossians 3

1 Therefore, if you have been raised with Christ, keep seeking the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. ² Set your minds on the things that are above, not on the things that are on earth. ³ For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

 

Life in earth (for the predominance of humanity), can be compared to an exotic vacation, where many significant sights exist and whereas a priority list that asks what shall be first is permitted – we’re (all) with a propensity to forget, that if our Creator won’t grant another breath, our plans are meaningless. More sooner, than later, an eternity awaits and whereas some will experience a great blissful forever – because they allowed the lordship Christ offered in earth to govern their steps, others, enamored with choices, trusting intellect and building on their own temporary dwelling, unknowingly say yes to an eternal doom. Instead, a new day prays that doom be thwarted through Christ and the spiritual proactivity of HIS church reaches any.
