Listen! Can You Hear Me Now?



"And after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice."
     - I Kings 19:12

Dear Friends,

There was no earth shaking experience this time.  There was not a blazing flame to illuminate the way. This time it was in the quietness.  Blessed. It was in the seeking of peace and the pursuit of it that the Lord make His will apparent.  Daughter! It was a whisper in my soul. A gentle and kind breeze within my spirit.  Daughter! The sound so delicate that it was audible and inaudible at the same time.  Deliberate.  Daughter!  "You better hush, Somebody is calling my name. It sounds like Jesus." Can you hear me now?

Continue on with the journey.  I will lead you in the way you should go.  The Holy Spirit, the still small voice.  Revival, restoration and renewal. Blessed be the ties that bind.

I have learned that silence is a tie that binds.  For in the days that this blog lay dormant I realized the power, the binding power of silence.  When friends and family experience life shattering events and the words of comfort ring hollow over their fresh wounds, silence binds.  Just a hug, a prayer, an unspoken act of love when you show up and sit a while.  Support. Silence binds because there are some things  a soul needs to hear a human voice cannot deliver. Faithful
Holy Spirit interceding with groaning that cannot be uttered. 

Listen, God is speaking.  There are no unseen tears. There are no unanswered prayers.  There are no obstacles too great.  God does not fail.  You ask what is the next step.  What is it that the Lord would have you do? Which way should you turn?

Listen! Daughter! Son! Can you hear Him now?
Softly.  Tenderly. The Lord asks: can you hear me now?

God bless!
in Christ,

Sis. Stephanie

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
