Today’s Topic: Change Your World (AUGUST 16, 2022)
Scripture: Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. – Colossians 3:2
Recommended Reading: Romans 12:2
Think about how focused our mind is on “things on the earth.” Besides our vocation and family life, our mind is occupied with fear-inducing headlines. Even when we sleep, our mind rehearses and consolidates all the thoughts we have had during the day. The mind is continually active, always seeking a focus which we must provide for it.
Paul acknowledged the struggle we have to keep our mind “set on things above, not on things on the earth.” He wrote in Romans 12:2 of the need to renew the mind and, therefore, be transformed from an earthly-centered life to a heavenly-centered life. Jesus admonished His followers to “seek first the kingdom of God” and allow God to order our earthly concerns according to His will (Matthew 6:33). Think how the world would be different if every person centered their mind on the values of the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:3-12) and the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23).
Take the challenge: Keep your mind centered, one day at a time, on heavenly things. You may just change your world.
Focus on giants—you stumble. Focus on God—your giants tumble.
