God Is Standing By

"I had fainted unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living."
     Psalms 27:13


"Everywhere you go there is trouble.  Everywhere you go there is strife.  Everywhere you go there is something that worries you.  But, remember, my God is standing by."
             - Walter Hawkins


Trouble does not always announce itself. Sometimes it seems that almost out of nowhere it is sitting next to you, looming over you or chasing you.  No one is exempt.  There may be seasons of calm but there are also seasons filled with storms.  

Jesus tells us in St. John 16: 33 "In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."


Trouble can make us tremble but it doesn't have to make us faint.  It can tire us but it does not have to weary us.

Galatians 6:9 "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not."


Don't faint because you don't have to.  You are an over comer in Christ.  Jesus has not only prepared us for problems that face us.  He has also let us know that some problems will be intense, thus the word, tribulation.  

He has let us know that in spite of what or who is bothering us we can remain confident, cheerful and steadfast because He has already taken care of it.

God bless!

In Christ,

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
