Living Things Living

by

  • Being silent, noticing living things, living. The breath of God flowing within and through as the trees bloom and the sun shines. A quiet appreciation of life. I think about how everything works together, as seasons change. Yeah, the pollen is falling and things get stirred up which brings an element of discomfort, but blooming and growth means life is bursting forth. There is a metamorphosis, things taking shape very naturally, very beautifully coming into form as God creates it to be. Watch it, living things, living! It’s everywhere! Do you notice?

Living From Shalom

by

I believe that God wants his children to live in peace. The Hebrew language has a word for it called “shalom”.  It’s more than just peace in the sense of the absence of conflict.  It has a deeper meaning. The best explanation that I have heard is this:  nothing missing, nothing broken.  That’s exactly the

The Holy Spirit is Trying to Save You From Living a Complicated Life!

by

Believe me when I say “Complicated” used to be my middle name. Sandra Complicated McCollom. I spent the first 34 years of my Christian life over-riding the promptings of the Holy Spirit. This made for one frustrated existence. Because of the way I used to live, I can’t even express how much I enjoy the […]

Your Search For Significance Is Over

Wouldn’t it be a great feeling to know that regardless of: how much you do or don’t accomplish on any given day how many compliments you do or don’t get how many people do or don’t understand you how many people accept or reject you how much money you do or don’t have what the […]

Floods Of Rest

by

An obsession with right and wrong had stolen my liberation most of my life. I wanted badly to get it right. It being my theology, my life, my character, my family, everything. But I got confusion and frustration and like parched earth on a hot Texas summer it starved my soul of the pure clean living water that was mine.

It was a drought of receiving and giving the love that so desperately wanted to flow. But slowly, the dam broke. Not like a thunderstorm, but like a still small voice saying, “It Is Finished” you can stop now and rest.

Let the water flow by letting go of right and resting now, because, I Am. I am your right, I am their right, I Am. And out of my belly flows rivers of living water. Floods of restful being, washing every part. I will never thirst again.

Alone-ness

by

It is in my alone-ness that God and I communicate the best. In the quiet of my evening, when my day has unfolded and my concerns or request are raw and laid bare. As I finish up my day, we talk all while I clean the kitchen or wash my face.

I also like to walk either alone or with my pups in tow. No music or podcast or sermons. Nothing to place my concentration on or distract me from where my thoughts are. Maybe family concerns or things happening with my friends. We talk about it. Even my own personal anxieties or feelings of inadequacy I notice in the quiet. Those I share with Him and He often reminds me of the truth or highlights a lie that I’ve allowed in.

I the quiet I can really focus on where my thoughts and feelings are settling. Where I am emotional in certain thoughts and why that particular thought elicits such emotion. The Holy Spirit gently and quietly points out the truth and where it fits or doesn’t fit with who I am.

Sometimes my feelings are strictly based on lack of sleep or hormones. In these I am given grace. Those are physical and may not be based on a lie, but physiology. In those times I remember the difference between eternal and temporary and I am thankful for the temporary and I allow myself to feel it and then let go.

Sometimes I even embrace the highs and lows for a time to enjoy the range of emotions that associated with being alive. It allows me a healthy, honest physiological experience in the moment.

I am thankful for a full range of emotions and thankful to my Father for being a woman.

“The Real You” series – Week 9: You Are Righteous In Christ!

by

Your righteousness in Christ is not based on your good behavior or perfect obedience. It’s based on what Jesus did for you through His death and resurrection! “That sounds too simple, Sandra.” Yep, it sure is. The Gospel is not complicated. Jesus literally did it all! Our part in the New Covenant of God’s Grace […]
