Hidden in Christ

     Did you know our Father in heaven sees Christ when He looks at you? Once we have believed in the birth, death, burial and resurrection of Christ, we are dead in our sin and we are hidden in Christ. Can we avoid the pitfalls of following our flesh and continue to live in the Spirit? Paul gives us a guide on how to do just that.

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. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.  Colossians 3:1-3

     Our eternal, forever home, is just a breath away. Don’t get too caught up in the things of this earth. They are temporary. We have already died and have been raised in Christ. God no longer sees our sin, but Christ in us. Give glory to Him today, by listening and walking with the Spirit. Keep your minds and hearts on things above.

Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Galatians 5:25

Jesus,
We set our heart on You today, on things above. Keep us in step with the Spirit. Keep us from falling into temptation and protect us from the evil around us.
Amen

al>     Jesus found you and called you. He will never let go.


Amen

     The dictates of the flesh often bring about suffering.
