Praise Him for the Obvious- Psalm 42:5

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.
- Psalm 42:5

 "When I am sad, He makes me glad. Jesus. He's my Friend." Being a Christian does not exempt us from sadness. This may seem to be a fact so obvious that it doesn't require stating it. However, these days, the obvious can stare us in the face and we might not recognize it. Obvious? It is okay to be sad. It is okay to be frightened. It is okay to wonder about where all of "this" is going. Yet, at the end of the fear, the fright and the wonder we have a life line. His Name is Jesus. Why is my soul disquieted "disturbed?" I have a choice. I can chose to praise God and believe that He is with me and will help me. Jesus.

 It is clear to me. Obvious. It is plain as day. Obvious. I don't have any doubts about it. Obvious. The Lord is with me. Obvious. The Lord is my Light. Obvious.The Lord is the Lifter of my head. Obvious. The Lord is my Shepherd. Obvious. The Lord is a strong tower. Obvious. The Lord is! The Lord is! The Lord is! Obviously!

 God bless!

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
