Accept! Acknowledge! Appreciate!




Psalm 69:13-14 King James Version (KJV)

13 But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O Lord, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.

Proverbs 3:5-King James Version (KJV)

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

2 Corinthians 9:15King James Version (KJV)

15 Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.

Dear Friends,

What a glorious time we had in worship service today!  The Missionary Society led devotion and the sister leading the song and prayer sparked a fire.
The Praise Team ushered in the remaining service with I Am a Friend of God.  The choir sang...The Blood Will Never Lose It's Power.  Better.  Blessed and Worth.  (Glorious time.  We had a glorious time!)

The visiting Pastor preached from I John 4.  Love!  He admonished us through his outline to Accept! Acknowledge! Appreciate!  

The preacher spoke about acceptance of the Lord Jesus Christ the activation key for love, pure love.  He talked about acknowledging the love of Christ and what that means.  We acknowledge the presence of God through our prayers and conversations with Him.

The Man of God kept going as he reminded us to appreciate the sacrifice that the Lord has made for us because He loves us.

Lord have mercy!  I was ready to run around the church.  My spirit is still running.  

I believe I will run on and see what the end will be.

Accept the Lord's will for your life.  Acknowledge Him and He will direct you in all ways.  Appreciate! Appreciate!  Appreciate!

"I thank God for everything He has ever done for me."   

in Christ,

Sis. Stephanie

THANKFULLY

  Philippians 1:3   “I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,” Wherever you are today, I thank God for you. Family, friends and all. I thank God. I praise God for allowing our lives to intersect in some way. May this day and every day be filled with gratitude. I pray that grace and peace abound.  Let mercy and grace be multiplied. Thankfully, the Lord God has brought us, from a mighty long way. God bless✨  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
