“Set your mind on things above, not on the things that are on earth.” - Colossians 3:2
I’ve heard an analogy before: Just as a ballerina must focus her eyes on a fixed point to keep her balance while she is spinning, so we must focus our eyes on Christ to keep from getting distracted and “falling.” That picture is such a helpful one for me. Circumstances are constantly changing, and the world is spinning so fast around us. The only way to keep balanced is to fix our eyes on the One who never changes.
