Sing a Song!


"The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing."  - Isaiah 14:7

Dear Friends,

 I love to sing. I love listening to beautiful songs, songs that add value to life and are thought provoking.  My favorite is gospel music.

 When I read Isaiah 14:7, I thought, just as the earth when it is at rest and is quiet, is graced with singing, so am I.  In the morning the birds get things started and break into song.  Different "notes" from different birds.  The blue jay holds his own, the sparrow is not shy.  The birds just sing.

 I love breaking out with a song.  Usually though there is no one around for my impromptu concerts. Yet, God hears me.  In the midst of the quiet and depending on the leading of the Holy Spirit, I might sing: "Shine on me. Shine on me. I wonder if the lighthouse will shine on me."  Getting inspired I might roll into: "This ain't no ordinary worship.  This ain't no ordinary song."  Well, my mind starts to go down memory lane. "Through it all. Through it all. I've learned to trust in Jesus. I've learned to trust in God."

 Sing a song! "Whenever you are tempted to fret or complain, think of His goodness to you."  Don't concern yourself with whether you can carry a tune. Sing a song! "Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me."  Sing a song! "I sing because I'm happy. I sing because I'm free."  

 Sing a song!  Burdens will lift.  Tears may flow.  You may start shouting.  Sing a song.  A song is the garment of praise.  It is the remedy for a heavy spirit.

 Go on now.  I hear you. Sing a song!

 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
