Road Work Ahead!




"Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass." - Psalms 37:5

Dear Friends,

Today on my way to work I saw a sign posted that read, "Road Work Ahead."  The sign caused me to be more alert, to look for the possibility of closed roads, the need to change lanes, or merge.  I slowed down a little as I rounded a bend realizing that there might be construction, red barrels in the street or work trucks.  Extra caution was in order, "Road Work Ahead."  

In our spiritual lives there is a "road work ahead" sign posted.  There is a constant need for us to be more alert.  Look for closed doors as well as open doors.  We need to be on the alert for the prompting of the Holy Spirit when He tells us to change lanes, go in a different direction, try a new approach, shift our attitude.  The Lord guides us throughout the hustle and bustle of life to take time to rest and be restored. He urges us to slow down a little.  There is a need for spiritual revival that we might move forward stronger. Strength is needed for the work ahead on this road,  our journey towards heaven.

God does not leave us in the dark.  He illuminates our way. He guides us and instructs us.  It is up to us however to follow Him.  We can choose to ignore the signs and plow through and run the risk of running into some trouble that could have been avoided. A pot hole experience can set us off course.  Now sometimes God wants us to hit the pot hole.  But there are other times we wind up in the hole because He told us to take the long way and we chose the short cut!

Road work ahead?  "Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass." - Psalms 37:5

in Christ,

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
