A Collect to Focus on Divine Things

Lord of Heaven and Earth, who keeps for us treasures in heaven, give us discernment to know what are human things and what are divine things, and set in our hearts a desire for the divine, that even as we not neglect the things of this earth, we are focused on the things of heaven, through Jesus Christ, your Son our Savior. Amen. “You are a stumbling block to me; for you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things.” – Matthew 16:23
