Tell Me Something Good



" A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver."
   - Proverbs 25:11

 Dear Friends,

 What a visual when we close our eyes and imagine apples of gold in pictures of silvers.
Silver and gold, there is something majestic about the combination.

 What do we say to this comparing and contrasting of right words to form this magnificent visual in Proverbs 25:11?  

 Words, right words, words spoken in season have lasting impact.  Choose your words carefully.

 One of my favorite Bible verses is found in the book of James: 

 "Swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath..."
     (James 1:19)

 Caution needs to be exercised before opening our mouths.  Likewise, discretion needs to be exercised in determining what words we receive in our spirit.

 Attacks from the enemy often come through the words of other people.  Those whom the Lord sends come with truth and life.  This does not mean the message is always pleasant but it is always meant to build you up and make you stronger in Christ.

 Tell me something good

  • I don't want to hear the gossip
  • I am not interested in slander
  • I will not entertain negativity
  • I rebuke fiery darts meant to tear me down
Tell me something good
  • Encourage with the Word of God
  • Build one another up with the Good News
  • Tell somebody that Jesus saves
  • The words I love you can brighten a day
Tell me something good

Jesus said:

" It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life."  - St. John 6:63

Tell me something good:


" A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver."
   - Proverbs 25:11


in Christ,

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
