Collosians 3:1-8,

Living as Those Made Alive in Christ

3 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your[a] life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

5 Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. 6 Because of these, the wrath of God is coming.[b] 7 You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. 8 But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips.

3/26 Edited to

Reflecting on Colossians 3:1-8, I have found that setting my mind on things above rather than earthly concerns has brought profound peace and purpose into my daily life. The passage encourages us to focus on our identity in Christ, reminding us that our true life is hidden with Him in God. This shift of mindset helps in distancing ourselves from the struggles and temptations that often plague us on earth. From personal experience, the call to put to death earthly desires such as anger, rage, and malice is challenging but deeply rewarding. Implementing this has involved intentionally practicing forgiveness and choosing positive speech to rid myself of slander and filthy language, as the scripture advises. This transformation isn’t instantaneous; it requires consistent reflection and reliance on prayer to set our hearts on higher things. Moreover, the reminder that Christ is seated at the right hand of God inspires hope and assurance, reinforcing that focusing on eternal truths gives strength to resist negative earthly influences. Living as those made alive in Christ becomes a daily commitment to align actions and thoughts with spiritual values, shaping us into better versions of ourselves. Embracing this mindset has not only improved my personal relationships but also deepened my spiritual walk. It encourages me to look beyond temporary setbacks and focus on eternal glory, which motivates perseverance and kindness even in difficult situations. This passage is a powerful guide for anyone seeking to live with greater purpose, joy, and alignment with God’s will.

The first slide introduces the topic: "What 'too much screen time' can look like in behavior." It states that these signs are often unexpected and easy to miss, encouraging readers to swipe to learn more about child development and screen time effects.

The second slide explains why screen time matters, detailing how screens affect developing brains. It highlights dopamine spikes, the still-forming prefrontal cortex, and clarifies that behaviors are signals of a dysregulated nervous system, not character flaws.

The third slide describes Sign #1: Intense meltdowns when screens turn off. It explains this as a nervous system crash due to dopamine withdrawal and suggests giving a 5-minute warning and transitioning to active play.

5 Signs Your Child May Have Too Much Screen Time
