Romans 8:9 -- We're not in the flesh but in the Spirit

It took me years to clue into this and then one day a wise woman said to me we forget we're eternal beings and get caught up in our earthly life span.  Lord, please help us to remember this is a temporary stop in our eternal journey and please help us to remember we're ambassadors for You while we're here on earth.  Would You help us to best represent You today.
