“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.” Colossians‬ ‭3:1-2‬ ‭KJV. These words remind us not only Who and what we should be seeking, but also how we are to do it. We will never truly be able to seek those things above until there a has been a change in our desires. As long as our affections are towards earthly things, then we will always seek those ‬‬first. It is much like a young man seeking only one woman to be his bride. He seeks her alone, because his affections are towards her. He will, of necessity, lose interest in other women, because his heart is set on this one. He seeks her because he loves her. That is what Jesus wants our attitude towards Him to be! He wants us to seek Him first, above all others, because we love Him supremely. And part of the miracle of real salvation is, that God brings such a change in our desires, that we want to seek Him with all of our heart!
