One of those Weekends

"If then you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God."  Colossians 3:1



As I set down to write this morning, I have pushed "delete" almost as quickly as I have typed words.  The reason- my mind is full of lots of things, ideas, words, stories and news.  


I had a very busy weekend. 

One of those weekends filled with events and people.  I love both!  

One of those weekends filled with laughter.  There were people happy to celebrate life which brought great joys.  

One of those weekends filled with tears.  There were people grieving losses of a family member and the loss of a marriage. Both brought me to tears.

One of those weekends that lead to hope while talking to someone going through breast cancer.  

One of those weekends that introduce a new friends, as well as getting to wrap your arms around someone just off an airplane.

One of those weekends that lead to worship and praise while joining with others in songs and hymns.

One of those weekends that confirmed God is sovereign.  The sermon was right on with my current Bible study.  He knew I would need to hear it again.

One of those weekends with rain and shine.  

God reminded me once again.  I am raised with Christ.  I am to keep on seeking things above.  I am to be soaring on a difference level.  No matter what the day may bring; happy, sad, secure, lonely, rain or shine.   Did you have one of those weekends, too?

We will be studying Colossians 3 for a while, stay tuned.
