What does "hidden with Christ in God" mean in Colossians 3:3?

Colossians 3:3 "For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God."

 I ask this now because I see a connection between v. 2 and v. 3: "for you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God."

Colossians 3:2 "Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth."
