Miracles! Keep Looking


"Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."
       - Hebrews 12:2

Dear Friends,

Looking for a miracle? Keep looking.  Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith is still performing miracles.  Miracles! All around us they exist.  The rising and setting of the sun everyday.  Miracles! Stars shining in the sky, twinkling.  "He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names." - Psalms 147:4

Looking for a miracle? Keep looking. "Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these." Miracles! Keep looking.

Jesus. The One who fed the multitudes with two fish and five loaves of bread is still turning little into plenty. Jesus. The One who turned water into wine is still turning the ordinary into the extraordinary.  Jesus. The One who called Lazarus back from the dead is still reviving and redeeming.  Miracles! Keep looking.

Jesus is a Miracle Worker.  Wonderful. Counselor.  Mighty God. Everlasting Father. Prince of Peace. Deliverer. Rose of Sharon. Bright and Morning Star. The Branch. Advocate. Restorer. The Resurrection and the Life.  Miracles! Keep looking. "And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." - Jeremiah 29:13

Miracles! Keep looking! All around us they exist. All power is in the hands of Jesus Christ Our Lord.  He is still performing miracles.  Keep looking.

God bless!
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie

The Journey Here

  Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. - Psalms 23:4 The journey here...that is really something to think about.  Where we are in life as compared to where we had hoped to be.  Paths chosen while other were forgotten or neglected.  Decisions.  Times of indecisiveness. There were times we crawled. Too weary to walk.  We ran. We were too impatient to wait.   The journey.  Here.  That is really something to think about. For me the most difficult and sometimes debilitating aspect of the journey, has been walking through the valley of the shadow of death.  Tempted to fear due to memories of time I could have spent, conversations I should have had, hugs I wish I had given.  This type of fearful fretting is not of God.  I have learned; I am learning that if I truly believe, He is with me.  If I surely stand on His promi...

If We Live

  For  that  ye ought to say, If the Lord  will ,  we  shall live, and  do   this ,  or   that .                                                   - James 4:15 If I live to see tomorrow... I remember hearing adults say this when I was a child.  Tomorrow seemed to be some miraculous day.  Big things were going to happen.  Something special was in store.  I began to think and say aloud: I can't wait until tomorrow. I did not realize that the biggest factor in "tomorrow" was if the Lord willed us to live to see it.  Everything, each and every day rested in the will of God.  So, what about today? How about some reframing.  "The Lord has blessed me with today. He allowed me this day."  How about doing something in the now. Procrastination is a thief.  It is a threat to hope....

I Remember

"When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.  Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings I will rejoice." - Psalms 63:6-7 Dear Friends, "My sister and me used to have bunk beds.  This reminds of me of that. Do you remember Stephanie? It's like we are having a pajama party." I remember. I sat with my sister in her Hospice room and I remembered.  Bunk beds that we sometimes had stacked and at other times they were laid side by side, like twin beds.  I remember that we are not in our room of long ago. Unless the Lord says otherwise when this "party" is over my sister will be with the Lord and I will return to my earthly home.  I remember. God was a Mighty Fortress during those days.  In a place where people go to comfortably die, the Lord was teaching a lesson on how to live.  Praise and worship was the norm.  My sister the angelic soprano sang.  Family came in the room and for...
