Devotions to Calm the ChaosSýnishorn

Think Eternally

On what do you fix your hope? Do you mistakenly trust in the things in your world? All of that will perish someday—and then what will become of your security? We have forgotten that mere things represent much less than God wants for us. We give them too much credit for making us happy. Things don’t have the power to change us. They only keep us tied to the physical world. The spiritual activity in our lives is what brings abundance, security, and permanence. Reaching for the intangibles like holiness, charity, and wisdom takes us to a deeper level of existence—and that’s something God wants us to experience.
