Talk to Yourself




"Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;"
- Ephesians 3:19-20

Dear Friends,

Sometimes you have to talk to yourself.  The enemy will attack when you least expect.  These attacks can happen anywhere.  You can be in the kitchen, at the mall, asleep, typing a blog.  In case you're wondering... I remember a song asked these words "how I keep going, how I stay strong?"
Well, sometimes, I repeat, you have to talk to yourself.  And you don't talk about any old thing.  Speak to yourself in Psalms: "Bless the Lord, O my soul and all that is within me bless His Holy Name."  Speak to yourself in  hymns: "I love the Lord, He heard my cry and pitied every groan, long as I live while trouble rise I'll hasten to His throne.  Speak to yourself in spiritual songs : "Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now I'm found. Was blind but now I see.
Are you feeling better? Just a little? Well keep speaking.  "I will call upon the Lord who is worthy to be praised." Psalms.  "A charge to keep I have a God to glorify, a never dying soul to save and fit it for the sky." Hymn.  "Jesus, Master, Savior, let all heaven and earth proclaim.  Kings and kingdoms shall all pass away but there is something about that name.  Spiritual song.

You feel your help coming on.  Keep talking to yourself!  "The Lord is my Light and my salvation." Psalms. I heard the voice of Jesus say come unto me and rest. Lie down thy weary one lie down thy head upon my breast. Hymn. "Every praise is to Our God every word of worship on one accord.  Every praise is to Our God."  Spiritual song.

in Christ,

Sis. Stephanie

My, My, My

  Luke 1:46b “My soul doth magnify the Lord,” My, my, my Such were my thoughts this morning as I looked out of my window at the sunrise. The Lord in His Majestic power has ordered another day. Waking up with the ability to see, to hear, and to speak. Graced with mercy to walk and talk. The Lord continues to bless and to keep. I did not wake up without aches and pains. Carefree and without challenges is not an entry on my schedule. Yet, my soul doth magnify the Lord. The Lord has given me another day to live another opportunity to serve. My, my, my.  God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie 

Just a Moment

  1 Corinthians 15:52   “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.” A moment. Just a minute. Things happen. Situations change. Here one minute and gone the next.  So the saying goes. Moments. They mater. While we have time… Take a second. Press pause. Stop.  Consider. Right now.  This moment. Counts…⏰ God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie 

I’ll Go With You

  Isaiah 41:10   “Fear thou not; for I  am  with thee: be not dismayed; for I  am  thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” “Jesus said if you go I’ll go with you.” Butterflies in my stomach  A racing heart  I do not want to attend the meeting  I wish I could cancel the appointment  I don’t want to talk about it Over “it” I don’t think I can do this  BUT GOD He reminds me that of course, I cannot accomplish even the most mundane tasks on my own  He assures me day by day that He is with me  He builds me up He orders my steps  He speaks peace to my soul  He renews my heart  Do not be afraid  You belong to Me I’ve got you I am holding you in My mighty hands  Go! I will go with you. God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie
