COT:

My son has these wristbands that have Bible verses on them. He wanted some of those and I loved that. Now, I’m not a fan of reading a single Bible verse, without context, because it’s easy to take and use them in ways they were not intended.

Anyway, I was looking through his collection the other night and one really simple one jumped out at me. It was Colossians 3:2 which says “Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Some translations say to seek. Seek, meaning to desire, have passion for. Well as a matter of fact, that entire day I spent all of my time and focus on earthly things. I was exhausted. I was stressed and I was feeling some despair.

Whether it was about food, money, sickness, work, responsibilities, home repairs, you name it. My day was spent focused on those things.

19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. – Matthew 6

Store up treasures you can access today AND tomorrow. Spend your time focused on the ONE and the ones who matter most. Your mind, body and soul will also benefit today.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:

2,977 people died 23 years ago on 9/11. The youngest was 2, Christine Hanson, on the way to Disney and the oldest was 82, Robert Norton.

While the 2 year old probably, hopefully didn’t know what was going on during the last few minutes of her life, my guess is Mr. Norton did. So did nearly 3,000 other adults. I wonder what they thought? I’m sure there was lots of fear, anger but lots of prayer and supporting one another on those planes.

Would we laugh more? Love more? listen more? Forgive more? Pray more? I know I would.

Remember that Tim McGraw song, “Live Like You Were Dying?”

Let’s all try to live every day like it’s our last.
