A Heart That Forgives

Psalm 139:23-24

23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

A heart that forgives is Christ like.  In spite of the many atrocities Jesus suffered at the hands of others, He forgave.  We know of the intentional wounds that were inflicted on Christ leading up to and during the crucifixion.  Perhaps we are not always mindful of the "unintentional" wounds.  Indifference, apathy, obstinance.  But, praise God,Christ forgives.  Over and over mercy and grace are extended to us.

I pray today for a heart that forgives.  Only the Lord can enable such a heart.  He will grant this to those who ask.  A dear friend of mine told me about a song: A Heart that Forgives by Kevn Levar.  Beautiful words.  "I want a heart that forgives.  A heart full of love.  I want a heart that forgives one that overcomes evil with goodness and love."

Today Lord God grant us forgiving hearts.  Create in us clean hearts.  Renew our spirits.  Let us be overcomers through the power of Your Word.   Thank You, Lord, for forgiving us. Thank you for Your Most Holy and Righteous Self.  Your heart Lord, forgives.

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
