THE DAILY BLUEPRINT - 7.3.09
GOING HOME
Part 8
Colossians 3:2-4
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth,
For you are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
When CHRIST, who is our life, shall appear, then shall we also appear with Him in glory!
The Christian life is a paradox - to become one - you must first die - and then you live - the world is opposite however - we begin our time on earth with birth that will one day end in a physical death - To follow Christ we must deny ourselves and follow Him at all costs - He is our life as today's verse proclaim - God has given us one life to live here - but when we leave here - it's not all said and done - glory awaits - I admit ive been stressed a lot about death lately - it's in the media - and closer to home as you know my Dad has gone home - this has caused me some anxiety - but God is calming me down - what I am scared of? I am not sure - there is much mystery in death - but since God made life He has all of that covered - each day is one day closer to our departure and while many don't like to think about it - one day we are gonna be leaving. That's why Paul says for us to set our affection on things above - not things on the earth - for what we can see is passing away - and what we cannot see is gonna last forever -the ultimate paradox - to live you must die - and to die in Christ is to live like never before. One day we are gonna be going home -
the question is - are we ready?
Dying to self so I can live for CHRIST, Daniel<><
BUILDING MOMENT:
Because we were born into sin -we must be reborn into righteousness!
Because we have CHRIST - death is just a doorway to life eternal
