Today’s Scripture
So if you're serious about living this new resurrection life with Christ, act like it. Pursue the things over which Christ presides. Don't shuffle along, eyes to the ground, absorbed with the things right in front of you. Look up, and be alert to what is going on around Christ—that's where the action is. See things from his perspective. Your old life is dead. Your new life, which is your real life—even though invisible to spectators—is with Christ in God. He is your life. When Christ (your real life, remember) shows up again on this earth, you'll show up, too—the real you, the glorious you. Meanwhile, be content with obscurity, like Christ.
Colossians 3:1-4
Today’s Thought
Force yourself to keep your mind off unhealthy distractions… Worry produces the lows of life diverting attention away from the Lord. Focus on God and His Word and have a fresh start overcoming distractions and the feelings of being disconnected from God.
Today’s Confession
Father, I thank you that I have the mind of Christ. I thank you that as I divert my attention from worry, I will no longer focus on the lows of life, but rather keep my eyes on you and focus on things above. Thank you for helping me keep my eyes fixed on you and overcoming doubt and worry in every area of my life!
