• How should I change?

How it Works
Say?

Do?
I have been immersed into Christ, therefore I am
like those to whom Paul wrote on this occasion.
What he says to them applies to me. What can I
do today to seek those things above where Christ
is? Must get back to daily Bible study, and
spend more time in prayer, not just at
meal-times. If I start actively seeking a lost
soul to convert this year, surely the commitment
will help me fill my mind with heavenly things.
The raising in this verse refers to baptism by
complete immersion in water. Only those who
believe in the risen Christ and are baptized into
Him have a reason to seek heavenly things. Focus
on spiritual matters, keep them foremost in mind
as much as possible.

• Colossians 31
• If then you were raised with Christ, seek those
  things which are above, where Christ is, sitting
  at the right hand of God.
• 32
• Set your mind on things above, not on things on
  the earth.
• 33
• For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ
  in God.
