Flesh or Spirit
Romans 8:5
For they that mind the things of the flesh are flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
What is your mind constantly on? Is it on items of the flesh? Things that are temporal, things that are of this world. Is your thoughts always on those things that will pass away. Remember all things of this world are but a vapor, here today and gone tomorrow. We get so bent out of shape over stuff, having stuff, wanting stuff, and keeping stuff. We also get so worried about events, people, sports, work, and other things that take up so much of our time effort and money. What if we put just a fraction of that on things of the Spirit, what if we took some of that time and put it in motion to see soul's saved or into prayer, or into reading and hearing God's word. I think this is partly what is behind the fasting we are doing on Thursdays. To draw us closer and to take us to the next level of devotion. Also to show us how much time we spend on fleshly things. Time that could be spent on building the eternal Kingdom. Kingdom that moth and rust won't corrupt. That will never pass away.
