THE RISEN LIFE 6

A LIFE OF HEAVENLY AFFECTIONS

Colossians 3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

During the recent tornadoes I saw the destruction of many houses. Some people had worked all their lives to build and beautify their earthly dwellings. It was all gone in a matter of minutes leaving nothing but rubble. It makes me hope that they had their affection on another home, one that is indestructible and can never be defiled.
We need to set our hearts on the home that Jesus has gone to prepare for us.
We need to think of our heavenly home and our heavenly family that will be centered around our Heavenly Father.
Many people are walking through life each day and they are looking for many things. As we walk with Jesus we need to be looking for the return of Jesus to come and take us home.
I believe that we certainly need to "look up. Redemption draweth nigh."
I hope you are walking the risen life and following Jesus. I hope you know Him as your Lord and Savior and know that He is preparing an eternal home for you in Heaven. It just took God six days to create this wonderful beautiful place called Earth. Jesus has been working on our Mansion in Heaven for over 2000 years. Isn't that going to be something to behold?
