Too Heavenly Minded

Is there such a thing as
being too devout and committed?
Can you be so heavenly-minded
that you're no earthly good?

TAKE A LOOK: You're Not Crazy!! (Video Clip)

Colossians 3:1-2 NKJV If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.

Matthew 6:21 NKJV For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

We are never warned in the Bible of being “too heavenly-minded.” However, we are repeatedly cautioned about being too earthly-minded and carnal. When a child of God is heavenly-minded, it makes them of more earthly good because of the way it influences their thinking.

Romans 8:6 NKJV For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

I have been accused of being too heavenly-minded, and no earthly good. I tried to change and "loosen up" but it never seemed to work. I finally decided that it's okay to be me. Having a spiritual mindset is better than having a carnal mind.

You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.

To God be the glory.
