Reminded of a Mother's Love - Week of May 12, 2019

Romans 8:38-39 King James Version (KJV)

38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Dear Friends,
When I consider the words in Romans 8:38-39 I am reminded of a mother's love.  The love of a mother is a child's first introduction to God.  The womb our first home.  Sanctuary. Sustenance. Security.  I am reminded of a mother's love.  As such I am convinced that nothing can separate us from the strength of that love.  A loving mother will go to great depths and extend her reach beyond her comfort zone to aid her children.
I am reminded of the sacrifices of my own mother.  There were times when she did not eat so we could.  She worked hard to afford us the opportunities to pursue our dreams. I am convinced and I am thoroughly persuaded that nothing could separate my mother's love from her children.  Though she is absent from the body and present with the Lord she lives on in the hearts of her children and grandchildren. Yes, I am reminded of a mother's love.
In my heart today I am reminded of a mother's love as I think of women who have lost children to sickness or violence and are grieving today.  Let us remember them in our prayers. As one whom his mother comforts, the Lord will comfort them is our prayer. (see Isaiah 66:13)
God bless you today and may you be reminded always of a mother's love.
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
