Where is Your Mind?

Where do you direct your thoughts? Do you direct your thoughts to the things of the world or do you fix your mind on the kingdom of God? Where is your mind?
What we fix our minds upon is important. Our thoughts become our words, and our words become our actions. It matters where our minds are focused.
The Apostle Paul wrote to the Colossian church, encouraging them with these words, saying, “Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.” (Colossians 3:2, ESV).
We are to set our minds on God and his kingdom as we live our lives in this world. As we fix our minds on things that are above, we speak and act on the things of God’s kingdom here “on earth as it is in heaven.”
So, where is your mind?
May we keep our minds fixed upon God and his kingdom as we live out kingdom lives here “on earth as it is in heaven.”
A Collect for Mission II: “O God, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth, and sent your blessed Son to preach peace to those who are far off and to those who are near: Grant that people everywhere may seek after you and find you; bring the nations into your fold; pour out your Spirit upon all flesh; and hasten the coming of your kingdom; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
