R. Alleluia, alleluia.
If then you were raised with Christ,
seek what is above,
where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
* [3:1–4] By retaining the message of the gospel that the risen, living Christ is the source of their salvation, the Colossians will be free from false religious evaluations of the things of the world (Col 3:1–2). They have died to these; but one day when Christ…appears, they will live with Christ in the presence of God (Col 3:3–4).

"We need intentional living in order to navigate the mixed messages and false advice we pick up from the culture so that we can improve on the many ills that our society suffers today. Notice, the popular culture speaks to us loud and clear especially through the lives of celebrities and stars of stage and screen and sport that: ‘You should commit to nothing and no one, so that you might have everything!’ But, there are those who commit to nothing and lose everything. Christian philosophy has always set forth that life is lived best if there is some thing or some one we are willing to live for, even die for. For the Christ we love and admire did just that with us in mind. The saints and martyrs of Christianity lived in such a way."
~
Bishop Joseph N Perry
