Our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who . . . will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
Philippians 3:20-21

I read somewhere that if you aim to be successful only on earth, you may never get to heaven even as the things of earth slip away. But if you aim for the things of heaven, not only will the Lord graciously bring you there; he will also make your life on earth something wonderful. So if you aim only for earth, you get nothing. But if you aim for heaven, you get everything. It’s called the add to life in the here and now.

There are all kinds of ­influences that distract us from giving God’s kingdom first place in our lives. We hear and read things like this: live for the moment, do whatever feels right and look out for number one. I personally think statements like these make people enemies of the cross.

Remember, if Christ isn’t first He’s last. Keep Him at the center of your life. Let Him be your all in all. Seek His Kingdom first and all things will be added to you.
