Colossians 3:2 (NKJV) Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.
Life can be stressful if we let it.
There are so many things that can cause our minds to be distracted from the things of God. And the more we get distracted, the more our emotions will try to take over and tell us what to do.
As we go through trials it can sometimes be so hard to hear God and know what choices we should be making. We listen and we either hear nothing at all, or we hear so many different things that it can be tough to know what is from God and what is not.
This is why we need to set our minds on things above and stay close to God. The closer we are to Him and the more our minds are focused on His things, the less room there is for the things of the world to get between us.
And the closer we are to Him, the more clearly we can hear Him and discern His voice when we’re going through tough times and need to make hard choices.
James 4:8 (NKJV) Draw near to God and He will draw near to you…
Press in and set your mind on things above.
