Colossians 3:2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.
Throughout God’s Word we are reminded to think more about spiritual matters and more about what is in store for us in Heaven than to dwell on the things of this earth.
If we focus on the earthly things then we are focusing on dwindling or vanishing things instead of the greatness that God can offer us.
Focusing on fleshly things will make us live for them instead of living for God; so focus on the things of God and you are more likely to live for God!
