Now Unto Him




“Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,”  Jude 1:24


I remember a few years ago when my daughter got her driver's license.  She was excited the day of her test and ready to show her skills on both the road and maneuverability test.
I was too high-strung to help much with instruction (I did pay for the classes).  Her father took her out for practice and he also took her to the Driver's Bureau to take the test.

All went well with the road test.  Then came the maneuverability.  One cone down and a joyful young lady quickly became heart broken.  Words meant to encourage did little to ease the pain.  However, faithful to His promise the Lord through the Holy Spirit gave her hope.

I said to my daughter:  "Life is full of maneuvers and blind spots.  But, what may appear or not to be blind spots for us are not blind spots for God.  Put him in front of your maneuvers
and He will lead you through."   A couple of weeks later she went back with scripture written out on a slip of paper.  This time it was seamless!  All cones were left standing but more importantly my daughter was standing...strong in the Spirit.

God is able to keep us from falling and to present us faultless.  On our own there will be knocked over cones but God is able to keep us and present an outcome full of glory and joy
when we look to Him always to handle that which concerns us.

God bless!

Help…My Help

  Psalms 46:1   “God  is our  refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Help.  God is my Help. Always present…in trouble and in triumph.  Help. God is my Help.  I lift up my eyes knowing my help comes from the Lord.  All my help.  Every need supplied. He is My Support. He is The Solution. My Benefactor. Ever providing. Always nourishing. Constantly replenishing. Help. God is My Help. God bless. In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...

The Journey Here

  Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. - Psalms 23:4 The journey here...that is really something to think about.  Where we are in life as compared to where we had hoped to be.  Paths chosen while other were forgotten or neglected.  Decisions.  Times of indecisiveness. There were times we crawled. Too weary to walk.  We ran. We were too impatient to wait.   The journey.  Here.  That is really something to think about. For me the most difficult and sometimes debilitating aspect of the journey, has been walking through the valley of the shadow of death.  Tempted to fear due to memories of time I could have spent, conversations I should have had, hugs I wish I had given.  This type of fearful fretting is not of God.  I have learned; I am learning that if I truly believe, He is with me.  If I surely stand on His promi...
