From Colossians 3:1-2: “So if you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on the things that are above, not on the things that are on earth.”
Resurrection’s breath
Eternal truth above
Joining hands with Savior
His light calls out with love
Good Shepherd’s clear voice
Every lamb follows Him
Praising new life in Christ
Journey no longer grim
Today’s stumbling steps
Faith’s imperfect avenue
Revealing Christ’s mercy
Spirit carries one through
Clothed in righteousness
Forgiven of one’s sins
Accepting Savior’s grace
Heaven’s joy, hope shall win
Trust welcomes Christ’s Word
Darkness leaving each heart
Tasting His peace at last
Eternity’s fresh start
From Colossians 3:17: “And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.”

“Darkness leaving each heart” is a beautiful event to anticipate. 🙂
