We talk a lot about heaven and earth and how we can be either spaced out in heaven enjoying worship or digging into the realities of daily life on earth. We wonder how to stay living in two worlds–how to be seated in heavenly places, be in the world but not of it,

and yet be all of Jesus in it.

The kingdom of God is in you. You are a piece of heaven on earth, so you can be in two places at once. It’s like having two monitors open. You’re working on the main one while constantly seeing what’s showing on the other screen and applying it as needed. One is showing you a constant view of heaven’s truth, love, creativity, and direction; and you get to pull it into everything as you go, thereby fulfilling the verse “on earth as it is in heaven.”
