Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Colossians 3:1-2
Today I was hurt by something someone said and did. Even though I have forgiven the person, my heart has stayed heavy most of the day, even to the point of not smiling. Those of you who know me, know that I smile all of the time. When I opened my Bible up tonight after praying, God spoke to me with the Scripture above. I immediately asked forgiveness and changed my thoughts. I started thinking about things above. Many times we find ourselves getting so caught up in the moment that we forget about what is important.
Tonight, I'm setting my heart and mind on the things above. The devil tries to destroy our happiness. However, true happiness comes from God. As long as we stay focused on Him, we can have a peace within us that will bring joy to our hearts in all circumstances.
I pray that whatever challenges each of you are carrying, that you can lift them to God and trust Him to take care of them. Don't let the devil rob you of your joy. Set your hearts and minds on things above, heavenly things, not earthly things. Stay focused on the things of God.
Have a blessed day in Him!
Dear God, I pray that you touch the lives of each person that is reading this post. I pray that you meet their every need. I pray that you will help them set their hearts and mind on You. We love you so much! In Jesus name, Amen!
