Romans 8:5-6 -- On Mental Focus

"For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace."
Romans 8:5-6


This struck me today I think because I have been spending too much time worrying about physical things rather than spiritual things, and this is a good reminder to focus on the things of God. ... Not that God doesn't care about physical ailments, but he can also help us transcend those concerns and help us focus on the spiritual, which is what leads us to life and peace.

Today, let's work on focusing on the spiritual and on the long term fate of our souls rather on the short-term fate of our bodies... God will help us with this, as we reach out to him and make the effort to change.
