If it is, we'd like to offer something that's even better.
"When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory," says Colossians 3:4 (NASB).
You can play poker all day long, all week long -- but if that's all you ever do with your life, you're likely to be disappointed when all is said and done.
But if Jesus is your life, you can have confidence that this life will NOT be all there is -- because an eternal life without end is promised in the future.
The writer of Colossians says that better life is "hidden with Christ in God" (verse 3). It may not always be shown with a religious T-shirt or bumper sticker. But it should be shown by putting away several all-too-human traits.
Verses 5 and 8 list what those traits are. Please note poker-playing is NOT there. But other habits are, which could be much more difficult to break.
If you want to change your focus in life, put those traits of the "earthly nature" to death. IF we can help with that, please e-mail us.
