Paul in Colossians 3:1 says
Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits in the place of honor at God’s right hand.
Colossians 3:1 NLT
I am not sure if you are like me, but my days seem to be spent on the earthly things, not the realities of heaven. Projects around the house, work, play, and conversations with loved ones are all part of my daily life and are good, but they don’t often set my focus on the reality of heaven. For that, I need to set time aside with God.
I remember being in my late 20’s and suddenly getting this overwhelming feeling of missing Jesus. It was a bizarre feeling since I was at that moment praying and spending time with God, yet I couldn’t shake a deep longing for him. I reflected on this for the day and realized that we were designed to walk and talk with God here on earth. That is how Adam and Eve lived before things got so messed up with sin. God and humans face to face and able to enjoy each others’ full presence.
Set your sights on the realities of heaven; that is where Christ’s physical presence is. I can’t wait to be there face to face enjoying God’s full presence!
Prayer Requests
The Annual General Meeting has been moved to 1 pm, April 10, 2021, at Faith Covenant Church in Breton AB. Look for details on our webpage. Pray that we will courageously follow God and his leading.
Coming out of last year’s annual general meeting was a desire to learn more about what it would take to solve the problems with the dining hall and kitchen at Covenant Bay. A building committee was struck to answer these questions of curiosity and report back to the AGM membership. A time to answer questions and make comments will be made available. Pray that we all will sense God’s leading in this conversation will be obediently follow his promptings.
Summer camps registration is now available, and we are inviting families to register. Will you pray that overnight camps will happen and that they will be full. We want to see more and more children come to understand the realities of heaven and begin a relationship with Jesus!
