As we gaze toward the horizon, our thoughts and desires ascend to the Heavenly Temple. Learn to place your challenges in the hands of the Savior.
"The Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever." 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
We always have the time to look up at the sky. The opportunity is ever-present, and the desire is strong, knowing that the Lord watches over us and guides us along the path of love and goodness.
What we often lack is the strength to make decisions that benefit us as children of God. This simple act can bring spiritual well-being, even if it seems out of place in a world focused on material gain.
We need to make the choice to nurture our faith. Taking a necessary pause to refocus our day, realigning our lives, and correcting our course along the path of the Holy Spirit.
Those moments of prayer and reflection that we often skip are the ones that could bring us inner peace and tranquility. Try praying and looking to the sky right now!
"Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things." Colossians 3:2
All internal processes that lead to growth require our attention. To achieve this, we must adopt a different perspective on our actions and decisions to truly engage with our higher connection.
Shifting our gaze from the ground to the sky: this small change in perspective can transform our daily lives.
Approaching our daily decisions with faith gives new meaning to our existence with the Lord. New reasons to live emerge, horizons of love and happiness open up, and our problems become mere stumbling blocks and learning opportunities.
When we join the universal symphony of the Holy Spirit, the Lord, and His son Jesus, we need not fear anything. As events unfold, we are part of something greater, shining with our own light, as we belong to God's Heavenly Temple.
"But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ." Philippians 3:20
Thanks to hope and faith, the gears of life are always in motion; we just need to understand the trials and teachings the Lord presents to us.
We are not complete on our own; we are part of this mechanism, contributing to the path of light our Heavenly Father invites us to follow.
It is crucial to read the signs carefully, not to force destiny toward our desires, but to interpret what the Holy Spirit reveals.
Pausing, looking upward, and feeling part of the blessings that unite us, perceiving the Glory of the Lord, will build the confidence needed to trust that everything will improve through God's infinite wisdom.
This is what will help you achieve your goals, participate in the universe of faith, and avoid playing your own individual tune.
"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge." Psalm 19:1-2
Finding the right balance between our spiritual needs and what the Lord wants us to incorporate into our lives can be challenging.
Would we feel comfortable as part of the unique plan the Lord has? Would we be a valuable and indispensable element for the universe of faith to reach our hearts?
Achieving the balance that allows us to be at peace, enjoying life with God, is not as difficult as it seems. We must recognize ourselves as valuable and unique beings, respecting and nurturing our beliefs and life foundations alongside the Lord.
