Title: Seek the things above.

-
If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.
Colossians 3:1 NKJV
Devotion: Dear reader, praise God that you have given your life to Christ. You are a Christian and you attend Sunday service yet you are focused on things ephemeral, things here on earth that can easily perish. You run after material things - big houses, big cars, you want to travel out, you want to dress up to oppress even in the church. 
 Dear, have you forgotten that Jesus says in Matt 6:33 seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and that, which the unbelievers run after will be added to you without stress. Why focus on perishable things? (Matt 6:19)
  If you have truly given your life to Christ let people see it in your speech, dress and simple life. You don't need to focus on the here and now, channel your service to the things of God and Humanity, think of how you can populate the Kingdom of God rather than how to make more and more money. 
  As you go about your duty today, 'seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God'.

Title: When your time shall be over, you'll fly away.

-
Psalms 90:10  The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Devotional: Late music legend – Peter Tosh sang a song with this title many years ago. It came to mind yesterday while I listened to a beautifully delivered sermon at a burial. I therefore penned this devotional on same title. Do not be deceived, at a point in your life you’ll fly away.   There comes a day when the tapestry of your earthly existence is folded. The moments of struggle, joy, triumph, and trials will all coalesce into a story complete. When that time comes, the soul, unburdened by the weight of the mortal frame, ascends beyond the veil of this world—taking flight toward eternal rest.   You are not bound to the temporal; your essence is celestial. As the Psalmist declared, "The days of our years are threescore years and ten...it is soon cut off, and we ...
