"Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things."
Colossians 3:2
Read Genesis 3:1-21
Do you remember the story of Adam and Eve? Their best friend was God, they could walk and talk with God in the Garden Paradise. What would it mean to set our minds on things above, not on earthly things? Do you think that Eve was thinking of 'earthly' things when she chose to eat the fruit or was she thinking of what God wanted? Give examples of our mistakes.
"Are you washed in the Blood?"

Thanks for reminding us to pray for the people and the things we read about in the newspaper, I'm going to do it!
Mistakes seem to be in abundance when you're a parent. Thank you god that you are ultimately in control and even when I screw it up early in their lives, you will always be with them as their heavenly parent. earthly things will pass away but your love endures forever.
