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

Help…My Help

  Psalms 46:1   “God  is our  refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Help.  God is my Help. Always present…in trouble and in triumph.  Help. God is my Help.  I lift up my eyes knowing my help comes from the Lord.  All my help.  Every need supplied. He is My Support. He is The Solution. My Benefactor. Ever providing. Always nourishing. Constantly replenishing. Help. God is My Help. God bless. In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...
