The Father Knows Best


"Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls."
   - Jeremiah 6:16 cf

 Dear Friends,

 The Father knows best.  In the scripture text from Jeremiah it is the Lord who instructs: Stand in the ways, and see.  Stand in the ways.  The path that God has set out is a clear path.  Of course, bramble bushes and thorn and over grown grass and weeds may at times block the way. Yet, the path is clear.
Trust Me.  Follow Me. Believe Me.  Stand in Me.  The Father knows best.

 Standing in the Lord provides clear vision.  This standing requires studying the Word of God.  The Word of God is a clear path.  Standing in the Word, being rooted and grounded in the Word allows us to "see."  Not traveling blindly through. We are following directions issues by God. The Father knows best.

 Ask for the old paths. Psalms, hymns spiritual songs.
Meeting with other believers for prayer.  Prayer meeting.  Order of service.  Decently and in order.
There are some that call the old paths mere tradition.
God knows.  The old paths, the historical perspective, from generation to generation, He is God.  The Father knows best.

 "Ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls."

 The Father knows best.

 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
