So Much To Be Thankful For

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.    - Colossians 3:15 


I have so much to be thankful for. During this time of uncertainty, I am thankful for Faithful God. In the midst of so much chaos and unrest, I am thankful for peace that surpasses understanding. I am thankful to have a thankful heart. For I have learned in 2020 how much I have taken for granted. Have I guarded my heart?

I have learned that you can have thankful thoughts and relish in thankful moments, glad tidings. But God had to shake some things up.  He moved some things out of the way.  He put other things and people out of reach.  

God has been asking me some searching questions.  When the Holy Spirit informs you that God wants your whole heart, thankful mind is quick to say yes because you're grateful that God is speaking. 

Thankful heart journeys have you going for broke.  2020 has revealed the need to stay wrapped in the garment of praise. I am choked up with thanksgiving because I realize God loves me and I don't deserve His grace.  Yet, He keeps amazing me.

When I "think thankful" a wheel starts moving in my heart and my heart tells my spirit: O GIVE THANKS UNTO THE LORD FOR HE IS GOOD! The Lord is Good. And that my soul knows right well.

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
