Set Your Mind on Things Above

Colossians 3:2

Pastor Tonya's message reminds us that a Kingdom mindset is not the absence of difficulty. It is a deliberate choice to seek Christ and keep His presence in view, even while facing life's circumstances.

Three ways to practice this Word

Keep seeking. Return to Scripture, prayer and God's presence throughout the day.

Keep looking above. Acknowledge life's challenges without allowing them to define your perspective.

Keep your mind on Christ. Pay attention to what fills your thoughts and intentionally redirect them toward Him.

Reflection: What has your attention today, and how can you turn that attention toward Christ?

Living the Word: A Seven-Day Practice

Kingdom-minded living is cultivated in ordinary moments. Set aside a few quiet minutes each day to read, pray, and notice where your thoughts travel.

Day 1 · SeekRead Colossians 3:1–2 slowly. Which word stays with you?
Day 2 · NoticeWrite down what has occupied your mind most often.
Day 3 · RedirectWhen a worry surfaces, pause and bring it into prayer.
Day 4 · RememberRecall a moment when God's presence steadied you.
Day 5 · EncourageReach out to a woman who could use a kind word.
Day 6 · Give ThanksName three gifts you might otherwise overlook.
Day 7 · RestReflect on what changed as you practiced looking above.

A renewed perspective is practiced, not perfected in a day.
