Honored



"Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honour. Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth  another hath fulfilled the law. - Romans 13:7-8

Dear Friend,

Today I was introduced to a Christian friend a sister in Christ who no longer lives here. Her name has been changed and her  current address is:

                        Street:"2 B Present With the Lord. City: On High  State: Heaven Zip: 3 (The Trinity)

Her son introduced me. In my spirit I received, "I would like you to meet my mom", as he presented me with a CD that he and his sister compiled.  The CD features their mother reading some of her original poetry.   The anointed voice, the God inspired words, the conviction with which each poem was read blessed my soul. I was honored to meet this strong soldier. Honored.

It is a privilege to serve the Lord and to witness daily the miracles God performs.  It is an honor to serve the True and Living God.  Some of you can relate to testimony time when the opening remarks are often "First giving honor to God."  God deserves the first honor. He has also set in place a forum through scripture that prompts us to pay tribute and honor to whom it is due.

Let us seek to honor God through acknowledging the blessings He has given us in our families, friends, and  co-workers.

"As we therefore have opportunity, let us do good, unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith."  -  Galatians 6:10

In Christ,

Sis.  Stephanie

Unlimited Access

"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"     - I Timothy 2:5 Dear Friends, "Please listen carefully for our options have changed."  I stay on the line listening to each option. More often than not there are at least seven.  If none of the options meet the need you have the final option of pressing "0" for the operator.   I praise God that on this Christian journey.  The access options do not change.  There is only One. One God, One Mediator, the man Christ Jesus. Jesus paid the ultimate sacrifice to provide us with unlimited access to the throne of God. We are never put on hold when we reach out to God. Prayer is a direct line through Jesus Christ.  Our worship, our praise is to the One and Only God.  Worthy is the Lamb. Praise God for Unlimited Access through Jesus Christ Our Lord. God bless! in Christ, Sis. Stephanie

I Remember

"When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.  Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings I will rejoice." - Psalms 63:6-7 Dear Friends, "My sister and me used to have bunk beds.  This reminds of me of that. Do you remember Stephanie? It's like we are having a pajama party." I remember. I sat with my sister in her Hospice room and I remembered.  Bunk beds that we sometimes had stacked and at other times they were laid side by side, like twin beds.  I remember that we are not in our room of long ago. Unless the Lord says otherwise when this "party" is over my sister will be with the Lord and I will return to my earthly home.  I remember. God was a Mighty Fortress during those days.  In a place where people go to comfortably die, the Lord was teaching a lesson on how to live.  Praise and worship was the norm.  My sister the angelic soprano sang.  Family came in the room and for...
