Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits in the place of honor at God’s right hand. Think about the things of heaven, not the things of earth. For you died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God. And when Christ, who is your life, is revealed to the whole world, you will share in all his glory. [Colossians 3.1-4]
Man, Paul's letter to the people at Colosse is perfect for the person seeking direction in life!
"The realities of heaven" is a great statement and one to meditate upon. Paul also tells that "real life" is hidden with Christ in God. So, if we are to 'get real' then we must get in Christ Who is seated at God's right hand in heaven.
The letter to the Colossians is full of good living advice. For some reason, I have never really grasped this fact from the letter. But today, it is sinking in!
Father, Your Word has reached out and spoken to me from Paul's letter to the Colossians. Thank You for helping me to see where reality really lies!
