Joy... I Cannot Explain

 1 Peter 1:7-8

That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:

I feel good.  I have joy down in my soul I cannot explain.  Unspeakable, this joy.  The sun is shining.  It is a clear day although cold.  The tree branches are waving.  Even though the leaves have departed for a season, the trees are still clapping their hands and rejoicing.  I believe the trees are feeling good!  Through the snow, there are little glimpses of grass.  Grass being fertilized under the snow.  The grass is feeling good. It knows that by and by it will return to its glory.  

Unspeakable joy.  Joy that prevails even through the hard times.  Joy that blossoms in the good times.  I cannot explain it.  I just feel good.  Alive, present and accounted for in a brand-new day.  Troubles exist but they do not consume.  They cannot erase this joy.  It is unspeakable.  Joy, real joy is given by God.  Joy, real joy is sealed by Christ.  Joy, real joy, is sustained by the Holy Ghost.  

Feeling good.  Feeling good right now.  I have joy down in my soul I cannot explain.  Unspeakable joy.  Glory!

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...

Believing God

  Philippians 1:6 “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform  it  until the day of Jesus Christ:” Preparing for the next chapter. Cleaning the clutter inside and out.  Reevaluating priorities.  Seeking a revival.  Believing God.  Slowing down a bit.  Focusing on spiritual wellness.  Taking care of my business.  Exercising faith.  Believing God. Stopping to view the sunrise.  Appreciating the sunset.  Planting flowers.  Picking some… Believing God.  Being thankful.  Being kind.  Being… Just being. Believing God.  God bless. In Christ, Sis.
