[Ohio-Communities-of-Faith] Lift Up Your Gaze by Max Lucado

[Maggie Stringer]

Do you feel as if your best years have passed you by? Do you regret wasting
seasons of life on foolish pursuits? So do I. But we can stop our
laments. We have an eternity to make up for lost time.

Colossians 3:1 is a great reminder to “seek those things which are above,
where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God.” Seek heaven the way a
sailor seeks the coast or a pilot seeks the landing strip. Colossians 3:2
says, “Think only about it.” Other translations say, “Keep your mind” on
it. “Pursue the things over which Christ presides.”

In other words, obsess yourself with heaven. *Open your eyes*, Christ
invites. Lift up your gaze. Don’t limit your story to the days between your
birth and death. You were made for more than this life.
