Too earthly minded to be any heavenly good

This world is a great analogy for the greater Kingdom...the one that doesn't wear out.  We tend to think of the spiritual kingdom as distant and hard to picture...but picture this: Heaven is where we aspire to spend our forever.  Heaven is where our God and His Son dwell in majesty and have since time was just an idea and will still be there when time no longer is relevant.  We pass through our earthly stay only briefly but during this critical period..this narrow passage..we have our big opportunity to grasp the grace of our Maker, realize our need for the Savior, and begin to enjoy the companionship of the Helper, the Holy Spirit.  So, the next time you hear about someone who is "too heavenly minded to be any earthly good",  consider the many of us who are "too earthly minded to be preparing for Heaven".
 
The great wonders of the natural world point to the eternal supernatural world and we can see heaven in His handiwork.
 
Job 16: 19 Surely even now my witness is in heaven, And my evidence is on high.
 
blessings,
