Colossians 3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
Setting our affections on things above should help believers avoid getting caught up in the things of this world----things that swamp our minds and hinder our walk with God.
This being an election year, it’s easy to focus on politics. That’s OK, but knowing that the Bible says that God appoints kings and leaders and presidents on earth may help me keep my sanity or at least endure the year with a little more ease. Pray that the Lord give us the right leader.
As we focus on Heaven, it’s good to know that Jesus is at the Father’s right hand, making intercession for us and giving us all we need to live for Him in this world.
Every decision, every activity, every plan and purpose is to be laid out before the Lord and considered not from an earthly perspective but from the viewpoint of Heaven.
