Elected!


"Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, long suffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye." - Colossians 3:12-13

Dear Friends,

Congratulations! You have been elected. We have been elected. Elected "of" God. We are elected to be holy and we are beloved in Christ Jesus. It is He who has made our election sure. The enemy has no power to impeach us. Elected to show mercy and kindness. We have been elected to walk in humility. We are to be clear in our understanding that the One who reigns in office does sit on high.We take our orders from The Most High God. This is the source of our humility.  We can do nothing in our own strength.  We serve at God's command.  Elected to be meek. Jesus teaches us that "the meek shall inherit the earth."  Elected to be long suffering. Wait on the Lord.

Knowing this divine appointment, this privilege we have as servants of Christ we should be shouting!
We have been forgiven. God elected to do so through Jesus Christ.  Jesus elected, He chose,  He decided to die for you and I. Picture Him, the Divinely Elected of God riding on a donkey being praised and celebrated by the crowd one week, and been crucified as many of the same crowd looked on about a week later.

Let us stay with the celebration crowd, the real Hosanna group. Let us cry aloud knowing we are forgiven and forgive others. 

Glory!  Ain't nobody gonna steal  our  joy. The only  "recount" is recounting all the blessings!   Name them. Go on! Count your blessings, ELECTED OF GOD.

Thank you Jesus!  Hosanna! Blessed be the Rock!

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
