Do you know where you are looking to find your life? Do you know where your life can be found?
We are all looking to live fully. We all desire fullness of life. We long for life everlasting.
The resurrection of Jesus enables us to truly live, to fully live, and to live eternally.
Our lives are found in the resurrected Jesus. We are raised to life with Jesus and fullness of life can be found in Jesus.
If we want to find our life and to fully live, we must set our minds above where Jesus is. This is where our true life is hidden.
The Apostle Paul wrote, “If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.” (Colossians 3:1-3, ESV).
The resurrection of Jesus means we can have life in him. Our true life is hidden in the resurrection life of Jesus. Because Jesus lives, we can also live in Jesus.
May we set our minds on things above and find our life hidden in the resurrected Jesus.
In Christ alone, Robbie
A Collect For The Communion Of Saints: “O eternal Lord God, you hold all souls in life: Shed forth upon your whole Church in Paradise and on earth the bright beams of your light and heavenly comfort; and grant that we, following the good example of those who have loved and served you here and are now at rest, may enter with them into the fullness of your unending joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (#113, Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
