What a Blessed Memory



The memory of the just is blessed
   - Proverbs 10:7a

 Dear Friends,

 Several of my mentors have gone on to Heaven.  One in particular, I only knew for a few years, yet the impact she had in my life was tremendous.  There were several times when I was facing a difficult situation the Lord brought her to mind.  I would be uplifted as I reflected on her many displays of kindness and encouragement.

 I have numerous cards, books and tapes that she gave me over the years.  Each card always contained a hand written message. The messages always arrived at just the right time.  

 I felt a unique kinship with Sis. Jean Mills. Because of her gift of discernment I felt a special bond with her.  Looking into her eyes I knew that she understood my journey and understood me. Through spiritual eyes she was able to look beyond my faults and challenge me to stir up the gifts within.

 Tonight the Holy Spirit brought my lovely mentor to mind. Through tear stained eyes, I can say, what a blessed memory. I went to one of my special boxes and pulled out a card she sent me and the burdens of the day became lighter.

 We are writing/living a legacy each day. Let us strive to be a blessing in the lives of others.  It really matters.  Sometimes in the midnight hour of a Christian's life, they need to know that it is safe to show weakness.  It is safe to cry and share their feelings of emotional pain.
As the Body of Christ we are representatives of sanctuary when we walk worthy of the vocation we have been called to.

 We are called to be a blessing.  Called to be lights shining in darkness.  Called to shine the  light of Christ not only to the lost but to the saved. Everyone needs a reminder that they are loved and should be celebrated. Fearfully and wonderfully made!

 To be remembered...blessed and remembered.

 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
