Thinking Thankful Thoughts

 

Psalms 104:34

“My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.”


“I have so many things to thank God for. And O Lord I want to thank you for so many things. For Your love and mercy and all I’m possessing. I lay awake sometimes counting my blessings. These things and more, Lord I thank you for.” 

- Count Your Blessings (Gospel Song)

- Author unknown 


I remember how much I looked forward to hearing Deacon Ezell sing this song. His voice always full of joy and testimony. 


The chorus resonates within me: “I’ve got my sight, and that’s a blessing. Clothed in my right mind, and that’s a blessing…”


As I write this morning, I am thinking thankful thoughts. Sometimes in my sleep the Holy Spirit gives me a song to inform my spirit. A song to comfort my soul. 

 He soothed my soul.

with the memory of this song. 


Thankful thoughts Lord. Let me always have this presence of mind. 


I pray that you will have a day that is filled with

thankfulness. 

No matter what we are facing, despite the troubles in our way, we choose to rejoice. 


Think. 

Thankful.

 Thoughts.


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
