In the game of “Hide And Seek”, the challenge is to find the best hiding place. Even the person who is “it” and has difficulty finding everyone can say with appreciation, “You found a good hiding place.”
In this world, Satan is “it”. He is on the prowl, seeking out who he might devour. (1 Peter 5:8) Have we found a good and secure hiding place here?
Paul encouraged. . .
“(2) Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. (3) For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. (4) When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.” (Colossians 3:2-4 ESV)
Paul described here our present condition in Christ by saying our life “is hidden with Christ in God.” God has provided the best hiding place for now! We should find great comfort and peace hidden in Him in a way that will bring us with Him into glory.
Have a great day WITH YOUR LIFE SAFELY HIDDEN WITH CHRIST!
