Live much in Heaven

  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~

(Mary Winslow, "Life in Jesus")

"Set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated
 at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above,
 not on earthly things." Colossians 3:1-2

Live much in Heaven--and earth will grow less attractive.

Jesus, You are my chief joy, my life, my all. Without You
this world would be wretchedness itself. Keep, oh keep me
near Yourself, nearer, nearer still; and allow no earthly
idol to occupy Your place in my heart.
