Even At My Worst



"I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities"
    - Psalm 31:7

Dear Friends,

"Jesus knows all about our struggles.  He will guide until the day is done.  There's not a friend like the Lowly Jesus.  No, not one.  No, not one."

Friends.  My mother taught me that if one is fortunate enough to have one true friend in life, you are blessed.  A true friend, a person you can confide in.  Someone who shares your joy and pain.  Someone who sees you at your worst, even at your worst and loves you unconditionally.  Jesus is That Kind of Friend.

When I am glad and rejoice, the Lord is there.  He is the source of my joy and He creates my gladness.  When I am in trouble, when my soul is consumed with grief, He is there.  The Lord is the Way Maker.  He provides courage and strength when trouble seems to surround me.  Even though I may cry or complain about my circumstances, the Lord is with me.

Adversity. When things just don't seem to go my way.  On days when I look around and find myself surrounded my people, yet, feeling alone He is there.  Even at my worst, when I lose heart, when my faith is shaky and my "shining light" is flickering, I am not alone.  In my adversity the Lord is with me.

Lord, I thank you for loving me in spite of myself.  I thank you for "seeing me" and being My Help, My Friend, My All. Thank you Lord for blessings my soul, even at my worst.

God bless!
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...
