In My Heart ... - Week of March 3, 2019

Psalm 27:8 King James Version (KJV)

When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.
Dear Friends,
"Lord I want to be a Christian in my heart.  Lord I want to be a Christian in my heart. Lord I want to be a Christian in my heart.
In my heart.  In my heart. Lord I want to be a Christian in my heart."
It is in my heart, the desire to be Christ like. Jesus Christ in my heart.  Personal.
It has to be personal.  The desire to have a heart for the things of God is a choice.  The Psalmist records that the Lord told him to seek His face.  His heart replied, Thy face will I seek. 
Seeking the Lord with the heart requires discipline and diligence.  It is understanding that we don't arrive at a place in life, in the Christian journey where it is acceptable to become complacent.  
In my heart I desire to do what is right.  In my heart I desire to grow stronger in faith each day.  In my heart I have the desire to love my enemies.  It's in my heart to do go to those who persecute and despitefully  use me.  
The capacity to live a Christ centered life is possible only through the blood of Jesus Christ.  When I falter Lord, I ask that you strengthen my heart.  When the cares of life threaten to harden my heart, Lord I pray:  
  • Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.     -     Psalm 51:10
Lord I want to be a Christian in my heart.

God bless!
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
