heads up!

Tuesday August 7th, Colossians 3: 1-2 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. God created the world and said it was good. God created humanity and said it was good. As we travel on the path of life, surrounded by the saints of God (though some would not consider themselves as such) our eyes are focused on the kingdom. The final chapters in Revelation have that vision for us. The holy city, coming down, open to all, all peoples refreshed by the water of life, healing for all nations, gates to the city always open. Head down living builds border fences, kingdom living builds welcome gates.
