Colossians 3:1

Tom Sipp Colossians 3:1

So if you

and I are laying in the dark, surrounded by turmoil, worry and apprehension. Suffering and in pain from the consequences of bad choices, misfortune and fear of the unknown. Not being or having enough and all alone. Distracted again.

Have been raised

Wake up! It's time to open our eyes, get up off the floor and out of bed, look up, look out and turn around. Redirect our attention and focus.

With Christ,

Why have we wandered away? Why are we going alone? We already know the One! We have a redeemer, a savior and a comforter.

Seek the things

Not any things, not what we have collected or searched far and wide for. Turn on and look toward the light. Look past old thoughts and ideas. Reach out. Be present in this moment, the only time we have, now!

That are above

What we are searching for is beyond what we see and hear. Not of this world. Past ourselves.

Where Christ is,

We are loved; we are forgiven! We will rest our heart and soul. All is well, safe and complete. He offers mercy, grace and hope.

Seated at the right hand of God.

Thine is the kingdom. We are at home; worries are gone, healed and whole. One with our Father. Thy will be done. Love trumps fear and we are at Peace!

Amen!
