“Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 1:13
Dear Jesus, What Peter tells us to do here takes great concentration. Our lives here on earth are so full and fun. Sometimes they are full of trouble. Fun or trouble, they are full. It’s not easy to set my heart fully on the grace that will be revealed when we all get to heaven with you. I’m stuck in the here and now and the not yet. But I hear Peter’s words and they get me thinking in your direction. Help me to be more fully dedicated to waiting for glory than pursuing earthly glory here. Make me heavenly minded. Give me the wisdom to quit trying to make my family, my job, my church and my community a heaven on earth. Just help me to love people more sincerely. I know love and faith will give me peace in all circumstances. To know I am destined for heaven by pure undeserved love is like having the biggest, fattest savings account. Amen.
Eternal Trillionaires. That’s what we are!
