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

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
