Why Not Today?



"For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end;  While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses."
   - Hebrews 3:14-16

Dear Friends,

So often we put off "doing."  We tell ourselves this or that can wait until tomorrow.  I will sort out the mail next week.  I will make the call or send the email when I have a chance.  The question the Holy Spirit has placed on my heart is: Why not today?

Perhaps, there is a friend or family member you have not spoken with in a while.  You have been intending to reach out but just have not gotten around to it.  Why not do it today?

There is a scripture that the Holy Spirit keeps bringing to mind and then there is the song.  You can't quite remember the verse or where it is found. You plan to look it up when you have a moment. Why not today?

We put things off trusting that there will be another time, another day that affords us the opportunity to accomplish intended tasks.  We are going to get to it tomorrow.  The question is: Why not today.

The scriptures tell us:

"Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that."  James 4:14-15

Today! The Lord has blessed us with today. While it is true that there are only so many things one can accomplish, there are some things we can take care of.  The Holy Spirit, as He orders our steps and directs our days will prioritize
for us where to begin.

Listen...do you hear Him?  Call, text, write, visit...Why not today?

in Christ,

Sis. Stephanie

Help…My Help

  Psalms 46:1   “God  is our  refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Help.  God is my Help. Always present…in trouble and in triumph.  Help. God is my Help.  I lift up my eyes knowing my help comes from the Lord.  All my help.  Every need supplied. He is My Support. He is The Solution. My Benefactor. Ever providing. Always nourishing. Constantly replenishing. Help. God is My Help. God bless. In Christ, Sis. Stephanie 

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...

Believing God

  Philippians 1:6 “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform  it  until the day of Jesus Christ:” Preparing for the next chapter. Cleaning the clutter inside and out.  Reevaluating priorities.  Seeking a revival.  Believing God.  Slowing down a bit.  Focusing on spiritual wellness.  Taking care of my business.  Exercising faith.  Believing God. Stopping to view the sunrise.  Appreciating the sunset.  Planting flowers.  Picking some… Believing God.  Being thankful.  Being kind.  Being… Just being. Believing God.  God bless. In Christ, Sis.
