2 Think about the things of heaven, not the things of earth. ~ Colossians 3:2
So often, our focus is on the things of this world that won’t last. The things that are temporal, that often lead to death. These are the things that take up our time and separate us from God. These things only get in the way of our heavenly reward. So why do we constantly fall down over the same temporary things?
I guess it’s because it’s hard to focus on something that we can’t see or imagine. We can’t imagine what God has in store for those who love Him. We can’t imagine the great reward that awaits us, so we focus on what we can see and imagine. It comes with being human.
Don’t be discouraged. There’s hope. We can change with the help of the Holy Spirit. We start with the transformation of our mind, which starts with reading your bible and spending quiet time with the LORD. When we begin to train our brains, the Spirit of God begins to take hold of us, and He helps us to focus on the eternal instead of the temporal. We just have to make the first move.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Begin To Train Your Brain.
