Our Father



"After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name."
    - St. Matthew 6:9

Dear Friends,

Every day is Father's Day. I think of my father and the many lessons he taught me growing up. One of the greatest lessons he taught me was, "Be a lady."  

 My father took me to get my first library card. He taught me to dance.  He taught me how to debate. He encouraged my dreams. I knew my father loved me and supported me.  He still does, no matter what.

I know that every struggle my father overcame was by God's grace. I know that his marriage to my mother lasted 56 years by the grace of God.  

As we ready ourselves to celebrate Father's Day,  I thank Our Heavenly Father for blessing me with my earthly father. 

"My father prayed for me had me on his mind, took the time and prayed for me.  I'm so glad he prayed. I'm so glad he prayed. I'm so glad he prayed for me."

Happy Father's Day Daddy!

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
