"The Weight Lifter"



"The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the leapers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me." - Matthew 11:5-6

Dear Friends,

The Lord is still lifting weights.  The blind still receive sight.  The lame are walking. The leprosy of the day is still being healed.  The deaf hear. The dead are resurrected. The gospel is still being preached.  The Lord, The Weight Lifter

Peace in spite of overwhelming adversity.  Joy, unspeakable even as tears flow.  Faith, oh so small, moving mountains.  Love bears all and hides a magnitude of faults.  The Lord, The Weight Lifter.

"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us. 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 12:1-2

Thank God for the testimonies of faithful witnesses.
Worries laid aside. Patient.  Looking to Jesus.  He is the Author and Finisher.  He will complete what He has started in us.  

The Lord is The Weight Lifter.

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...
