One Oh One! 101




"O praise the Lord, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people  For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the Lord endureth for ever. Praise ye the Lord." - Psalms 117:1-2

Dear Friends,

I praise God today, the One and the Only, Lord of Lords for this 101st blog entry.  To say that He alone is Worthy is to know this.

Years ago the Lord placed on my heart to write a newsletter: "Unique Inspiration."  I wrote and published the newsletter for some years and distributed it with the help of family and friends.  My mother was my proof reader. I remember also, the encouragement I received from the late Sis. Gertrude Ribbins who allowed me to put copies out in her family's bookstore.
 
In 2012 The Unique Inspiration appeared as a blog and through transition, my "Abraham to Israel" experience, I have journeyed to  "Tysthatbind."  The journey to get here has been due to the One! Oh! One! The Lord.   He continues to encourage me, to comfort me, through life. He stirs up the gift in me to encourage others.  

God's classroom, 101.  It is a lifetime experience.  There is growth but no graduate courses.  Graduation will be transition when we all get to heaven!  

I thank God for allowing me to share with each of you. I pray God's blessings upon your lives.  There is a tie that binds us.  The Holy Spirit links us, knits us, all together.  The Word of God tells us:

" That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." - Colossians 2:2-3

I encourage you today, knowing that we are bound together, remember to do this:

"Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." - Ephesians 4:31-32

And,

" Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.  Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil."
   - Ephesians 6:10-11 


             Blessed be the ties that bind our hearts in Christian
             love.  The fellowship of kindred minds is like to that
             above.

in Christ,

Sis. Stephanie

SHIFT KEY

  1 Corinthians 13:12 “For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.”  It all depends on how you look at it. What’s your focus? Is the picture clear or blurry? Do you need to crop the photo for a better view? A little shift in focus can be key.  Shifting the way you look at things can make a big difference.  I am looking at the shift key on my keyboard. I have options. Lower case or uppercase. Numerical or special characters. Failure to shift correctly can cause denied access because my password is not recognized. Shift is key. Some things can be better understood if we take the time to change our focus.  Zoom in on what really matters.  Stop looking at things that appear  insurmountable. Instead shift your focus. Look at God. The view is breathtaking when I look up. I see Jesus. He sees me. I am shifting my focus. Eyes lifted up. I see where my help comes from. My help comes from the Lord. The Lord who

Through the Eyes of Faith ...By Grace

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of work, lest anyone should boast.   - Ephesians 2:8-9  “Amazing grace shall always be my song of praise for it was grace that bought my liberty. I don’t know why He chose to love me so. He looked beyond my faults and saw my needs.”  So much has happened since the last time I “saw” you. The changing circumstances of the journey have been stabilized by an Unchanging God.   Journey on my sisters and brothers. Bask in the knowledge that unfailing mercy and sufficient grace surround you.   Grace makes new beginnings possible. We can begin again. The time is now. The choice? It’s yours. Yours for the asking.  Through the eyes of faith…we see Jesus.  God bless! In Christ,  Sis. Stephanie
