Ask and Ye Shall Receive...

John 16:24King James Version (KJV)

24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

Dear Friends,

 May the poem below offer you encouragement in your walk with the Lord.  The author is unknown to me.

 God bless.

Asking And Receiving

Prayer is asking God
and the answer is receiving
When we ask the Lord
expecting and believing
God can do any miracle
beyond our wildest dreams
even when the odds are against us,
or so it seems

Many things we could have if we asked
so our joy would be full
When we ask the Lord and receive,
rich blessings will flood our soul
Anything big or small God will give us
when we pray in Jesus name and seek
He's always there to hear our prayers
and help the burdened and weak

God can move any mountain
with his great power and might
and when things look bleak to us
he can make them turn out right
Nothing is too hard for God,
he can do anything anytime
When we are poor and needy,
is the time our faith will climb

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
