       The stuff of the world, even people, are just of the world. If you stop and think about it, for Paul that’s all he pretty much had at the end, his relationship with God. He did say, “Luke alone is with me” (2 Timothy 4:11, ESV). So, he had one person with him—that was it, after everything. Verse 2: “Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth” (ESV). Here comes to us the true obstacle of life—the true obstacle. It has to be that. It has to be the mind. The mind we find, experientially, is the hardest thing to control. It’s the control center of our lives, and yet, most often, we find it is out of control. Not easily tamed, is the mind. We find that the mind is set on a lot of things, and those things can be earthly things if we aren’t careful. To set the mind—to set the mind is to put it in a direction. Are we directionally thinking about things that pertain this earth?
